KUCHING (May 27): A male crocodile that escaped from the Matang Wildlife Centre on March 11 has been successfully captured by the Sarawak Forestry Corporation (SFC) in a river near Ensel Garden in Matang around 12pm today.

According to SFC in a Facebook post, the 12-foot crocodile weighing around 300kg was immediately sent to Jong’s Crocodile farm to be rehomed.

Ensel Garden, according to SFC, is near to the wildlife centre where two crocodiles escaped from after their enclosure collapsed due to heavy downpour and flash floods in the area.
