No it's not the NZ boy whose parents want to christen him Superman after their first choice, 4Real, was rejected by authorities. It's a crocodile in Russia which appears to have made 3 attempts to escape the apartment where its kept by jumping out a 12th floor window. Khenar (sex uncertain) lost one tooth in the latest fall but seems to be okay otherwise. No details were given in the report I read about Khenar's size, but it seems s/he was able to comfortably fit on the back seat of the owner's car when he came to collect it. At this point it seems reasonable to think, if only for the sake of passersby, that the owner put bars on the window, or at the very least sit down for a heart-to-heart with Khenar to see why the crocodile wants "out" so much.
(I wonder what other animals/reptiles can legally be housed in Russian apartments.)
