DARWIN, Australia, June 26 (UPI) -- Patrons at a bar in Australia said they were surprised when a baby crocodile unexpectedly walked in front of the building's door.
It is a mystery how the 2-foot-long crocodile made its way to the Noonamah Tavern, about 25 miles outside of the Northern Territory capital of Darwin, CNN reported.
"I think someone went fishing and picked him up. Or someone left him here as a practical joke. It's very unlikely that it walked up by itself," Naray said.
Drinkers hurried out of the bar after two nearby gas station workers saw the crocodile near the building Sunday, the report said.
Patrons said they carried the animal into the bar for some quick photos before sending it to the Darwin Crocodile Farm, where it is in good condition.
