‘Crocodile’ Found Swimming In M’sia Flood Water, Turns Out To Be A Pillow

Crocodile Pillow Found In Malaysia Flood Water

Torrential downpours have led to massive floods across Malaysia in the past few weeks. While we deeply sympathise with the victims, it seems some lost belongings can cause a huge misunderstanding.

On 23 Dec, Malaysia Twitter account @kltrafficupdate tweeted about a crocodile ‘swimming’ in flood waters. It turns out that the crocodile was just a pillow.

While nearby residents were probably scared to death, we’re relieved to learn that no one was harmed by this ‘reptile’.

From afar, it seemed like a tiny version of the fearsome reptile. Much like the real thing, it looked as if it was quietly ‘swimming’ too.

During flash floods, it’s pretty common for reptiles and other wildlife creatures to end up in urban areas. But in this case, it seems the reptile is actually a plushie.

The tweet’s caption asked—with an exclamation mark,

Who’s pillow is this!

Once it was caught, the pillow had a smug grin on its face too, as if sporting a mischievous look after giving residents a scare.
