For as long as I can remember there have been Crocs around the ferry area.
Never seen one at the drive through crossing. But when you walk any river up north. Crocs are always on your mind.
Crocs are on the increase!! Proserpine river in say 1992 had a few Crocs and now you could walk to the other side across there backs.
This is about as far south as you see them. But people see lots of logadiles in the
Mary river in Hervey bay
As kids we use to tube and ski off the boats ramp at Thomatis creek at Holloway beach near
Cairns. There were a couple of Crocs in there, but they lived up stream a bit. Now you would not stick your big toe in there.
One night years later we were playing touch footy at Aeroglen and up out of the creek wonders this croc, stopped play for a little while.
When living up in
Darwin and Jubiru I have never seen so many Crocs. You would have to poke to away with a stick just get your fishing line in the water. That was 94. I could only imagine what there like know. But I think Territorians know how to take care of them on the QT
This would make an interesting post, to Cull or not to Cull.
