TAIPEI, Taiwan — A zoo worker had his forearm reattached Thursday after his colleagues recovered the severed limb from the mouth of a 440-pound Nile crocodile, an official said.
The crocodile severed Chang Po-yu's forearm on Wednesday at the Shaoshan Zoo in the southern city of Kaohsiung when the veterinarian tried to retrieve a tranquilizer dart from the reptile's hide, zoo officials said.

So, they got the arm back. That tells me that this crocodile was just taunting them. If he had been hungry, I'm sure he would have eaten it.
Good lesson learned. If you're going to tranquilize a predator, try to verify that it's out cold before you decide to retrieve the dart. Duh
