“#Crocodile has surgery to remove shoe from stomach in Florida<\/strong>”
\n<\/p>\n

A Nile crocodile is recovering after having a sneaker surgically removed from her stomach.<\/p>\n

And it\u2019s a good thing she didn\u2019t wait for the other shoe to drop, as efforts to remove the sneaker without cutting into the croc proved unsuccessful, including an attempt by one doctor to simply reach in through the reptile\u2019s esophagus to pull it out. <\/p>\n

Anuket, a 10.5-foot, 341-pound crocodile from the St. Augustine Alligator Farm Zoological Park, swallowed the shoe after a ziplining zoo-goer lost it in December. Guests near the reptile\u2019s enclosure at the time witnessed Anuket gobbling the sneaker, then regurgitating it, then eating it up once again. It remained in her stomach for nearly three months, according to<\/a> a Facebook<\/a> post by the University of Florida College of Veterinary Medicine in Gainesville. <\/p>\n

Once doctors determined that Anuket would not be able to \u201cflush out\u201d the sneaker naturally, they resorted to a few other tricks they had up their sleeves. One resident tried grabbing the shoe through the croc\u2019s gaping gullet. After realizing the shoe had been lodged too deep, vets then tried shifting the shoe further up Anuket\u2019s stomach, through a tiny incision in the stomach, and reaching in through the throat once again \u2014 to no avail.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat effort, too, failed,\u201d read Tuesday\u2019s Facebook update. \u201c[Dr. Adam] Biedrzycki then performed a gastrotomy which allowed easier access to the crocodile\u2019s stomach. Within a short time, he was able to remove the shoe.\u201d<\/p>\n

On February 5, Anuket underwent a brief operation to have the sneaker removed. \u201cAfter an overnight stay, Anuket returned home, and has been recuperating at the park since then,\u201d the vets added. <\/p>\n

Zoo handlers have said they are \u201chapp<\/a>y\u201d that Anuket is doing well \u2014 for now, at least, as one follower on Facebook warned, \u201cI hear [crocodiles] will eat almost anything.\u201d\n <\/div>\n
