Crocodile Gives Backpacker His Just Desserts
NOVON Mashiah is on holiday in Australia. He sees a crocodile.
Says he: “I began playing with it for a photo.
“I was pointing at it when it suddenly jumped up at me - I didn’t realise that crocs were so aggressive.”

He should leave the crocs alone and go play with all the lovely, friendly little snakes or pet some cuddly, playful spiders.

Well Novon you’re a very lucky Man!
I hope you have learnt your lesson there mate! I’m just glad you’re not another statistic, as we all should know by now all Crocodilians are ambush predators and have lightning speed and will eat you at any given opportunity! There are many “QPWS” (Queensland Parks and wildlife services) Warning signs around that help people be more aware of our Crocs.
QPWS can warn people about there own wellbeing but it’s up to you to take care of your own safety and responsibilities. As the saying goes “you can take a Horse to water but you can’t make it drink” Remember complacency kills!!! In any situation, its not just tourists that get injured by crocs.
Novon I would like to take this opportunity to wish you a wonderful and safe Holliday

Pity he wasn’t a bit slower.
It would have improved the gene pool a bit.
