Crocodile attacking dog in Vadodara

Back in August, Vadodara along with other cities of Gujarat received torrential rain which caused water-logging in various areas.

Captured swimming in a pond in a Chinese village, the video of a fish went all kinds of viral. It’s because of the fish’s resemblance with a complete human face – a nose, two eyes, and a mouth.
