Swallowed Cell Phone Keeps Ringing in Crocodile

The notorious croc in Peter Pan has a twin.



A report earlier this week in Keiv, Ukraine stated that 20 year old Rimma Golovko had accidentally dropped her Nokia phone in the crocodile exhibit at a local aquarium while trying to obtain a very up close shot, resulting in a crocodile swallowing it whole. How can vetreniarians tell? Golovko's phone still rings when called.

 "But then the phone started ringing and the sound was coming from inside our Gena's stomach and we understood she wasn't lying," said Maria Danilova of AOL News about an employee working with the crocodiles at the aquarium.

An X-Ray test will be done next week if the crocodile still refuses to eat or to pass a bowel, and would be under the care of  chief veterinarian Oleksandr Shushlenko.

"Everything (including possible surgery) will depend on where the foreign body is located," Shushlenko stated. "We don't have much experience working with such large animals."


but either way, I guess you don't have to go to neverland to experience the thrill of the ticking, sorry, ringing, croc.
