I hope they find him soon :sad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest The Pom Queen Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 They won't find him if he has been taken. Its tragic and I feel for the family BUT for goodness sake, everyone knows not to swim in the billabongs, rivers, lakes, waterfalls up there in the wet season. We have three areas where crocs are often spotted and I usually see aboriginal children swimming or fishing there :no: We all choose to live up here we need to remember that we share this land with crocs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starlight7 Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 Apparently they can travel over land at night about 8 km so a waterhole that is considered 'safe' one day may not be the next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
