A mugger crocodile was rescued on Wednesday from Latumai village near Firozabad in Uttar Pradesh, Wildlife SOS officials said. Rescue team members said the reptile, also known as marsh crocodile, was later released in the Yamuna river. Earlier, the residents of the village, nearly 75 km from Agra, were taken aback on seeing the crocodile -- weighing around 90 kg and nearly seven feet in length -- wandering close to their homes.
