Glasgow Daily Record, UK 13th aug
TWO alligators rescued in Scotland have fallen for each other - after one of them ditched his "English" partner.
Crocs named Jimmy Choo and Alice have become inseparable at a sanctuary in Spain.
And their keepers hope the pair, recovered from Edinburgh and Galashiels, Selkirkshire, may even produce some offspring.
Jimmy had been close to a caiman rescued in London before Alice arrived at Crocodile Park in Torremolinos.
Doreen Graham, of the Scottish Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, said: "The two Scots are great pals and, with luck, they might mate."
Jimmy was sent to Crocodile Park after Anthony Quinn, 37, tried to sell him to undercover animal detectives in an Edinburgh car park.
Quinn admitted keeping it in a Leith flat without a licence. He was fined s200 and banned from keeping animals for five years.
Alice was seized by inspectors in Galashiels last month.
