Wow, amazing they were able to reattach that.

I'm also sort of amazed that they shot the croc in the neck, twice (!!), to get the arm back, and all the bullets did was "shock" the croc into dropping the arm.

Well I would imagine those shots would have to compete with the adrenalin (if crocs can produce that) in their system.

Pretty gross pic IMO. Not exactly the cleanest of amputations

Reattached but ripped off like that probably won't be doing any card tricks anytime soon. Imagine the croc's mouth not the most sterile either.
