Crocodile kills Australia fisherman
A man is killed by a giant saltwater crocodile as he fished with his wife in northern Australia - the fourth fatal attack this year.
 
I'm so saddened when I read the news story you posted about Neil.

I did the cruise on that river, and the photos of the jumping crocs is the cruise they are talking about. Pretty sure I saw that actual croc too, being part albino I doubt there was another one on that river.

What saddens me is - The man, 57, was attacked by the 4.5-metre (15ft) reptile as he waded into the Adelaide River to unsnag his line, south of Darwin.

EVERYWHERE are huge, obvious signs saying DO NOT APPROACH THE WATERS EDGE.

But no, some idiot has to wade out into the water, probably right in front of a sign, and then oh no, he gets attacked, quick shoot the croc. GRRRRRRRRR ..... I'm a bit of a live and let die kinda gal. The croc was just trying to eliminate an idiot and now the croc gets hunted down.

Now mind you, had our cruise boat sunk, these are the life boats - 12 people in each of these little things and a river full of crocs? I reckon they were just so they would look like water crackers to help as appetisers ...
