Inside Cambridgeshire crocodile zoo where boy, 3, was attacked

Footage filmed by the BBC last year shows the inside of a zoo where a three-year-old boy was attacked by a crocodile on Thursday.

The boy was critically injured after ending up in the animal’s enclosure at Johnsons of Old Hurst, near Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire, the BBC understands.

A 30-year-old man from Norfolk was arrested on suspicion of attempted murder and has since been released on bail, Cambridgeshire Police said.

The zoo also houses alligators. Andy Johnson, the zoo’s owner, spoke to the BBC from inside the alligator enclosure at the site in March 2025, where he said the animals could be loud and echo “like the roar of a lion”.
