Ismaning - The mouth with the pointed teeth half open, had caught a crocodile on a low hanging branch in the Isar near Ismaning on Tuesday . A stroller called the police. The reptile that the stroller fished from the Isar below Lindenstrasse in Ismaning on Tuesday is just under a meter long.
Experts have to determine whether it is a crocodile, an alligator or a caiman . The animal was stuffed and someone must have thrown it into the river. Likewise a large, stuffed sea turtle. It had caught on the same branch.
Crocodile probably illegal in the country - nature conservation authority informed
When a police patrol arrived in Ismaning , the walker - or "concerned citizen", as the police report says - had already recovered both preparations from the river. The man had recognized that they were "real" animals , but just stuffed. Which is probably a violation of the species protection agreement. According to the police, such preparations may not be imported. The stuffed animals probably drove through the Isar and got stuck on a branch at Ismaning.
"It could be a stuffed alligator or caiman and a stuffed sea turtle," reports the police. The owner is unknown. The police will inform the nature conservation authority in the district office - and try to clarify who threw the stuffed animals into the Isar.
