Croc-bitten tourist 'stupid' - National - theage.com.au

Some people should be used as feed for crocks to protect the crocks and help them to live well!

 

"They looked across the creek and they saw this crocodile there on the other bank," Queensland Parks and Wildlife Service spokesman, Mark Read, said.

"They then waded across the creek to the other side. It's pretty risky behaviour."

As they did so, the crocodile, which locals call Allan, slipped into the water.

"Then the gentleman in question wanted to get a better photograph of the crocodile, which by this stage had submerged.

"And the gentleman then picked up a short stick, approximately 30 centimeters long, and was tapping the water within about a meter and a half of the crocodile to try and get a better photograph.

"The animal has then lunged at him and has inflicted a single bite to the left knee."

"The funny thing is his girlfriend told us he's been bitten by a monkey before."

Really do we care that he got bitten?  NOPE! I hope the crock was ok.
