Re Newsletter: Crocodiles north of Gladstone?


If they're no further south than Gladstone, why are there croc signs south of Maryborough Qld at Boonooroo, Tuan and Poona?

 It's to warn the crocs they are too far south and they might catch a cold.

Strangely enough, there have been crocs south to Southport,gold coast. One really big one was shot there in the early last century, and there have been sightings in the Sandy straights. Must be something to do with global warming........... We had one 3.1m in the marina at Nelly bay on Magnetic island! Don,t worry about the crocs, the sharks have eaten them.....Don,t worry about the sharks, the stingers have killed them, ...... Don,t worry about the stingers the crocs have eaten them all...........

A long time ago, but this croc was caught in the Logan river at Logan Village in 1905
