Dog-Eating Crocodile Caught In Australia After Terrorizing Community For Weeks.

The NT News reported that a 4.38 metre croc that had been eating dogs and threatening locals in a Daly River community was finally caught and removed on Saturday.

Senior ranger Tom Nichols said the animal had been hanging around for “a couple of weeks”.

“It was taking dogs from the community and posing a threat to kids in the area,” he said.

“A trap was set about a week ago and croc was caught on Thursday.”

Three members of the croc management team and local police undertook the strenuous task of getting the estimated half-ton saltie out of the trap.

“We gave it some drugs, pulled it out of the trap and loaded it up on our skid trailer,” Mr Nichols said.

“Some crocs are worse than others but he wasn’t too bad.

“We stopped in Adelaide River to wet him down and that gave the local kids, and adults too, a chance to see the croc and ask questions.”
