The child suffered serious injuries, including a broken arm and a fractured pelvis. He is receiving ongoing medical treatment and is reported to be in stable condition as doctors monitor his recovery.
Reports suggest the boy did not land directly in the water beside the crocodiles, but instead hit a concrete walkway first. This may have reduced the immediate danger from a direct encounter with the animals.
A reptile expert explained that landing near a crocodile could have been catastrophic, as crocodiles react quickly and have an extremely powerful bite, making close proximity extremely dangerous.
