《太平广记·卷四百六十六·水族三》
百姓养的马和牛，有的走近潭水，就被鳄鱼吸去吃掉了，转眼之间被鳄鱼吃掉的牛马，多得数不过来，老百姓多年来就认为这是灾难。
民之马牛有滨其水者，辄吸而噬之，不瞬而尽为所害者，莫可胜计，民患之有年矣。
Some of the horses and cows that the common people raised, when they approached the pond, would be sucked in and eaten by the crocodile, and the number of cattle and horses eaten by the crocodile in the blink of an eye was too many to count, something which the common people for many years regarded as a catastrophe.
