Woman finds crocodile in Sydney swimming pool

A woman found a small crocodile in her garden swimming pool in Sydney, a zoo spokeswoman said today, just weeks after another crocodile was found in a nearby pond.

The latest uninvited croc to turn up in northern Sydney was a 21-inch freshwater crocodile, a different species to the two-foot saltwater croc found on February 23, said Australian Reptile Park spokeswoman Mary Rayner.
