9:39AM Jess McGuire | I don’t really need to think about crocodiles much as I go about my day. There’s very little chance of me running into one on the way to the tram stop, and I am blessed enough to be able to leave my front door open all night long with no fear of a giant saltwater beast swaggering inside and eating me and/or my dog.
But I’m one of the lucky ones in this great big country of ours. For some people in Queensland, crocs are constantly on their mind. They’re something that must be dealt with on a daily basis, and letting ones guard down for even a moment could have disastrous consequences. Naturally, the Queensland Government have many thoughts on crocodiles too, and at the moment the main concern is the fact they’re eating people and coughing bits up. Or having foreign things discovered inside them. Or something.
Either way, it’s not good!
The Queensland Opposition has called for an inquiry into the government’s crocodile management policy, after anonymous claims it has led to the deaths of two men.
