Family of boy injured in Cambridgeshire crocodile enclosure thank zoo staff who rescued him

Three-year-old remains in hospital after undergoing multiple surgeries but is now in a stable condition

The family of a three-year-old boy who was seriously injured in a crocodile attack at a zoo have thanked staff at the attraction in a new statement released through the police.

Last month, officers were called to Johnsons of Old Hurst zoo in Huntingdonshire over “reports of an incident involving a three-year-old boy, during which he ended up in the crocodile enclosure”.
