泰國(guó)幾十年一遇的洪水使得不少地區(qū)都受到重創(chuàng)，目前死亡人數(shù)已超過(guò)300人。在古都大城，除了肆虐的洪水，人們還要提防鱷魚(yú)襲擊。據(jù)悉，在此次洪水中，約有100條鱷魚(yú)逃出大城飼養(yǎng)園區(qū)。為此，泰國(guó)公共衛(wèi)生部已發(fā)布“懸賞令”，活捉一條鱷魚(yú)可獲得1000泰銖（約合33美元）的獎(jiǎng)勵(lì)。泰國(guó)自然資源部上星期還專門(mén)設(shè)立熱線電話，鼓勵(lì)災(zāi)區(qū)民眾向政府匯報(bào)動(dòng)物逃逸事件，特別是老虎、蛇、鱷魚(yú)等可能傷人的動(dòng)物。

Around 100 reptiles are thought to be on the loose after escaping from farms in the area and authorities have issued a 1,000 baht ($33) bounty for each crocodile caught alive. |
The ancient Thai city of Ayutthaya, which has seen its temple engulfed in the kingdom's flood crisis, has discovered a new menace lurking in the floodwaters -- crocodiles.
Around 100 reptiles are thought to be on the loose after escaping from farms in the area and authorities have issued a 1,000 baht ($33) bounty for each crocodile caught alive, said Public Health Minister Vitthaya Buranasiri.
“The crocodiles need to be captured to keep people safe,” he told AFP.
The creatures have been spotted in several areas of the former Thai capital, a World Heritage site and major tourist attraction.
Thailand’s worst floods in decades have inundated huge swathes of the kingdom, swallowing homes and businesses, shutting down industry, and forcing tens of thousands of people to seek refuge in shelters.
About 300 people have died in the disaster, although there have been no known incidents of animal-related deaths resulting from the flooding.
The natural resource ministry has dedicated a hotline for people wanting to report wild animals on the loose in flooded areas.
“We are now coordinating with the fishery department for a hotline about any loose animals in the flood areas, whether it is tigers, snakes or crocodiles,” said an official, who said the department has received “many phone calls”.
The ministry said government agencies have been dispatched to catch the creatures, but was unable to disclose how many had been caught. The hotline number inside Thailand is 1362.
