Hemal Modi's Diary

Just when residents of the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) campus in Powai were getting used to leopards prowling in their backyards, they received a croc shock on Sunday night. Have you ever closely seen a 9-foot crocodile in your garden. Apparently, it had crawled out of the adjoining Powai Lake and lazily crossed a 15-feet wide road before settling down, somewhat confused, in the garden. People were enthusiastic to catch a glimpse of the huge creature, but the security guards allowed them to see it only from a distance. One teenager said wryly, "It feels like we’re living in a zoo. Monkeys and leopards are regular visitors already. Now, a crocodile!"
