The family of a three-year-old boy who was seriously injured in a crocodile enclosure has thanked staff at the zoo who rescued their son.
The boy was seriously injured at Johnsons of Old Hurst, a zoo near Huntingdon, on 18 June. He remains in hospital in a stable condition.
His family said: "We would like to thank the staff at the zoo who rescued our son from the enclosure.
"We are truly grateful for the public support and well-wishes we have received, as well as to everyone who has been directly involved in our son's care and recovery in hospital.
"Our attention remains focused on his recovery and supporting him through this extremely challenging and prolonged period of time."
The boy, from Cambridgeshire, was attacked by at least one crocodile after he ended up in their enclosure. He was "pulled out by staff from the zoo", police said.
He was taken to hospital, where he was initially described as being in a critical condition.
Cambridgeshire Police said the boy "faces a long road to recovery".
A 30-year-old man from Norfolk was arrested on suspicion of attempted murder but was later bailed after he was "assessed as not being fit for interview", Cambridgeshire Police said.
The Tropical House where the crocodiles are kept was closed following the incident, but reopened last week.
The zoo confirmed in a social media post that its "whole site will be fully open" on Saturday, nine days after the boy was allegedly thrown in the pit.
Meanwhile, an investigation has been launched after the medical records of the boy were accessed by around 40 members of hospital staff.
Cambridge University Hospitals (CUH) has referred itself to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) and is investigating whether all the staff members had a legitimate reason for viewing his information.

The zoo is home to more than 100 animals, including crocodiles, Bengal tigers, African lions, capybaras, meerkats, and sloth bears, according to its website.
The Tropical House building where the crocodiles are kept is a converted cattle barn.
