Hi All

I was only just asking a few days ago if there had ever been any crocodiles in Exmouth. Well today I got official news via The West Australian online, that a Crocodile was spotted at Coral Bay yesterday (150km South of Exmouth).

Here's the link:

Not the first time either the way the report reads

Extract:

"This is the first time a saltwater crocodile has been seen around Coral Bay in a long time, over a decade I would guess - - -"

When they get as far as Perth that should solve the shark problems. Don't crocs eat sharks. That is what they told Tommy the pommy jackeroo.

It is supposed to be safe diving with crocs as they can't swallow under water. Me thinks that they will still bite though.

well sharks don't swim out of water so if crocs eat sharks, and I've seen pictures, i wouldn't be swimming either.

Believe it or not - a photo I took in Mandurah Estuary last year - no ones been eaten yet tho! ;o)

Probably been hiding in the mangroves at Bunbury near the old pub on the water, then swum out to sea and on down to Mandurah! ;o)

With any luck he might thin the numbers of crabbers down there! he he he.



Keep a sharp eye out on the banks before you step into the estuary to scoop crabs is my advice! LOL

Cheers & happy easter crabbing! ;o)
