live. “I was splashing about in the shallow part of the river, near the bank, close to an old
coconut stump which had been washed down by erosion. The stump saved life, the boy related.
Suddenly, I felt something grip me on the left leg, dragging me towards the middle of the river I
struggled hard and managed to get a grip on the roots of the old stump. At the same time, I
shouted for help but none came.
His friend, meanwhile, had scrambled up the bank to safety. The boy said that he did not realize
that a crocodile has seized him until he saw its tail threshing the water.
“When I saw what it was, he went on breathlessly, “I held all the more tightly to the coconut
roots and using my left hand, I started to beat the crocodile . Then with my left hand and right leg
I managed to force open its jaws and get free. I climbed up on to the stump and hobbled off to tell
my father."
