🐊 Croc update - Vaal river🐊
29/8/2026

We have been contacted by a lady named Mande Smith who is currently on the water down by Parys (below the Barrage wall).

She has spotted the croc and has confirmed it’s currently in the reeds. She is with it as we speak trying to get a photo/video.

Yes we have spoken to people to let the croc expert know and to possibly go try retrieve it.

We’ll give more information as we receive it.
