They are Crocs

Only there aren’t any !

@@benacedo2580 ok

🤣👍

That is a very wise decision.

I have a friend who lives in Australia and she said the crocodiles are only on the north part of Australia

I live down south on a river, no crocs here! Lol. Only up in the far north in the tropics!

During the dry season, you can find many croc free waterholes in the NT and Queensland !

There are crocs only in the far north tropics!

One side is Aboriginal land, supplies etc need to transported. I crossed in a car when the water was to deep and the engine stopped right in the middle. Managed to get going again and cross, on the way back I waited until the tide was at its lowest point.

You would last here like the rest of us. The crocs are up in the far north in the tropics with a very low population.

Forgot to add, plenty of “wade” fishing here too (fly fishing ? )

@@jimcrawford5039 love fly fishing I go to the fl keys every year just to fly fish.

Ahh, you'd be fine mate 🇦🇺👍

@@Robochop-vz3qm I actually made it a month cross training with your army back in 2003 near rockhamton. I feel in love with your country it’s beautiful and you guys love to drink lol reason I said I wouldn’t last a day is I don’t read signs and I would end up getting in the water where a lot of crocodiles are. I’d take running into a bear or mountain lion any day over a crocodile they’re scary as hell.

Remarkable tides, eh ! 30+ miles from the sea and over 30 ft above sea level. Truly remarkable.

@@WildlifeObsessed It is tidal

It’s a beautiful part of Australia. Been there twice, right across the north. Wish I could do it again. It is magic!

It's awesome mate

You don’t have to walk on the crossing though ! You will be fine

If they are locals they are ok, if tourists they are idiots!

@Frost Rusher why?

@@redmi2s468 one snap away from being dinner.

@@JuttMC actually i was asking something else from the guy who now has deleted his comment"crocs Don't eat those birds"😅😅

Whoever's the weakest. Oldest person, sick person, person with a slight cough. If you're all healthy then I guess it'll have to be scissors paper rock.

They only do that at high tide, that's when the Barra etc wash over the crossing.

Yep a couple million years evolution unchanged! Pretty clever creatures!

It would get washed away in the wet season.

That would have been me. Jabiru was my first tune in croc territory and the locals thought it would be a good laugh to have me stading in knee deep water on the crossing, telling me all the time is was safe. I had a sting ray swim over me feet and a shark swim past.

It’s only a name. Like lion river or bear river. None of those here either!

@@jimcrawford5039 different matter. It was named as explored by Lieutenant Phillip Parker King in 1820, who named them in the mistaken belief that the crocodiles in the estuaries were alligators. I'd quite fancy lions there though

JPFDNPP31111ELE right?!? No need to punish the animals for participating in natural selection....

But that's exactly what happens when a person is taken by a croc. The croc is hunted and killed by the poor rangers who then have to deal with the gruesome task that follows. You're right - the croc did nothing wrong. Fishing and crabbing and boating are just such a huge part of life in Northern Australia. People are willing to take risks and also become very complacent.

Johan I believe what happens is when a croc has taken someone, they have to track it in order to find the body. Crocs 'store' carcasses they can't eat in one go, either to come back to it later for another helping or to catch other animals that have been attracted to the smell. I guess maybe crocs act differently when they've recently fed which is how rangers know which ones to track in these circumstances. A lot of rangers in those areas are probably Aboriginal or they enlist the help of an Aboriginal tracker to help them. Perhaps the croc usually ends up being killed in the process of all this. Not a very nice thing for the ranger/tracker to have to go through - and a big reason why you should indeed stay away from them!

@@DrJetset if a croc killed your child , your saying you'd want it to live?
