The shot was taken in the morning on 07.07.2014 in the dam lake in Amari Rethymno, Crete, Greece.
There are no free crocodiles in Greece and this is the only one found and filmed in a natural environment.
Probably someone stupid had bought it from a pet store and then he left it free in the lake.
Several attempts have been made to catch it and take it to a country that can live, but unfortunately they could not and the next winter ''SIFIS'' died.
The scientists who examined him after his death told us that it was a Nile crocodile.
Until about 10 years ago, the law in Greece and in many countries of Europe allowed the import and sale of exotic animals.
Greece had been filled with pet shops that had snakes, poisonous spiders, iguanas, and newborn crocodiles.
Every stupid with money wanted to have a pithon or a pet iguanas !!!
Fortunately, this law has changed and the balance returned to the environment.
