The parents of a boy who was eaten by a crocodile have asked authorities not to kill it. The crocodile was trapped by floodwaters and examined by police “using non-lethal surgical procedure,” reports the BBC. The child was playing near his home in northern Queensland when he was last seen 5 February.
