The crocodiles sprung from the Rakwena Crocodile Farm in the far north of the country when owners were forced to open the gates to prevent a storm surge after the nearby Limpopo river rose.
A number have since been recaptured, but at least half remain on the loose, scattered far and wide.
“We’ve been recapturing them as and when the local farmers phone us to tell us that there are crocodiles on their property,” said Zane Langman, the son-in-law of Johan Boshoff, who owns Rakwena.
He added the most of the recapturing efforts were taking place at night.
Crocodiles are apparently easier to catch at night because their eyes shine red in the dark. More
