A three-year-old boy who was attacked by a crocodile in a zoo enclosure is making remarkable progress, according to his parents.The incident occurred on 18 June at Johnsons of Old Hurst near Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire, when the child was reportedly injured by at least one of the animals.

The boy sustained severe injuries to his arms, neck, head, face, and suffered broken bones, leading to multiple surgeries including a nerve graft on his left arm.His parents shared updates on a fundraising page, stating he is now talking to nurses, playing with his feet, and smiling again.

The family described the hospital experience as the 'worst 12 hours' of their lives, involving critical decisions about resuscitation and amputation.A 30-year-old man from Norfolk was arrested on suspicion of attempted murder but later bailed.Investigations are ongoing into the care of the accused, who has learning disabilities and was on a trip with carers.The parents emphasized the boy's resilience, noting the nerve graft's success remains uncertain until further tests.The case highlights the dangers of wildlife encounters and the community's support for the child's recovery.
