What are the odds of waking up to something so terrifying that you actually don’t know whether it is a bad dream or a harsh reality doomed upon you.

According to NDTV, Vadodara resident Mahendra Padhiyar woke up due to a strange noise coming from his bathroom. Just like anyone else, the curious man had to wake up to check what was wrong in his house.

Padhiyar immediately called Wildlife Rescue Trust, a Vadodara-based animal welfare organization to rescue the reptile.

According to the rescuers, the crocodile had probably strayed into the house from the nearby Vishwamitri river. They said, such a sight is common in Vadodara, as the rivers nearby are home to a number of reptiles.
