A Cambodian farmer, Luan Nam, has passed on after forty of his crocodiles attacked him.
According to New York Post, he was attacked on Friday, May 24, while attempting to wrangle one of his reptiles.
“The “crocodiles pounced, attacking him until he was dead,” Mey Savry — police chief of Siem Reap commune, where the man’s farm was located — told Viral Press of the freak incident.
The 72-year-old victim had reportedly entered the enclosure so he could remove one of the crocs from a cage where it had laid eggs. Things took a devastating turn after the beast “attacked the stick” he was using to corral it, “causing him to fall into the enclosure,” according to Savry.
All of a sudden, the reptile shepherd was beset by dozens of the animals which ripped his body to shreds leaving the paddock awash in blood.
