Crocodile wanders into family's sitting room

Wildlife rangers have helped an Australian family deal with an uninvited guest - a 5ft crocodile that wandered into their living room.

The juvenile saltwater crocodile wandered into a home in Bees Creek, a suburb of the northern Australian city of Darwin and the family found it in a partially enclosed living area after their dog's barking woke them.

Crocodile management official Dani Best said the reptile might have been forced out of a nearby creek by a larger crocodile.

The intruder has been relocated to a crocodile farm.
