Cambodian Crocodile Farmer Loses His Life After 40 Of His Own Animals Pounced On Him

Forty crocodiles killed a Cambodian farmer today while he was 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 accident.

The 72-year-old victim, named Luan Nam, had reportedly entered the enclosure so he could remove one of the crocs from a cage where it had laid eggs.

Things took a disastrous 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.

Nam, who was also president of the local crocodile farmers’ association, had reportedly been urged for years to quit the business.

“He really got betrayed by deadly reptiles what else did he expected,” someone commented. “When I see all these crocodile owners I always say it’s for a matter of time,” another person wrote.
