Babia was thought never to have attacked another animal or any human, surviving for decades on a vegetarian diet.
Hundreds of people attended the tearful funeral Monday of a crocodile believed to have been divine and which survived for decades on a vegetarian diet at a Hindu temple in India.
The revered reptile was found floating lifeless in the lake early on Monday after reportedly being off its food for several days. "The last divine crocodile was shot dead by the British military sometime in 1940 and after that Babia appeared in the lake," Bhat said.Babia was considered holy because it was thought never to have attacked another animal or any human — including children who were brought to the lake's edge to touch the reptile to gain its blessings.
