A man visiting a zoo was attacked by a crocodile — after he climbed into the animal's enclosure to pose for photos.
The man — identified by the Manila Bulletin as a 29-year-old — climbed over a chain-link fence with a cell phone in hand at the Kabug Island Mangrove and Wetlands Park in the Philippines' southern Zamboanga Sibugay province on Monday, April 28.
In a video obtained by ViralPress, onlookers could be heard screaming at the man and the crocodile after it bit him on the arm and held on tight.
Though the man could be seen sitting still as he awaited help, the crocodile — a female named Lalay — dragged him through the shallow water and rolled over, twisting his arm even further as he screamed in pain.
