“Got any bites?” Croc enjoys the fishing with a budding Labor politician near Cairns
From Jim O’Toole, Townsville bureau
The fools that occupy the state Department of Environment are waiting for a child to be taken by a three metre salt water crocodile near Cairns before any action will be taken to remove it.
The Mulgrave River on the southern outskirts of Cairns has been known as a crocodile haunt since Cairns was settled in 1876.
Since then sprawling southern suburbs have taken up just about all the ground suitable for housing extending into the upper reaches of the river and the settlement of Goldsborough.
This settlement was hard hit by cyclone Jasper before Christmas and weeks of torrential rain has washed out the narrow bridge servicing the local population.
This left schoolkids from a dozen homes on the southern side of the river marooned, unable to cross the bridge to attend school.
So parents launched a tinnie to ferry the kids across the fast running water only to discover a large croc nearby which no doubt had been waiting for an opportunity to grab a kid.
Rangers, after much public pressure agreed to search for the croc at night with a spotlight to ascertain its presence and if it posed any threat to the schoolchildren in the boat.
Cairns News invites Minister Leanne Linard and the rangers to take a swim in the area to find out if the crocodile is dangerous.
This Labor and Greens-driven animal rights stupidity has infected the entire department and many say the entire Labor government.
Why don’t these brain-dead Labor and Greens politicians and their departmental staff come to Goldsborough with their school kids and let them cross the river in a small tinnie?
You can bet as sure as Labor will be kicked out in October they will not come north.
Unfortunately the woke Liberals who hope to take over the George St reins by default in October are also driven by the Greens’ madness and will not do anything about the massive explosion in crocodile numbers infesting waterways between the Torres Strait and the Mary River at Maryborough.
When pressed by the Cairns Post a departmental spokeswoman(never identify themselves) said the current was too strong for traps so the rangers would monitor the area with a spotlight at night.
“If they observe a crocodile and assess that it poses a risk to public safety, it will be targeted for removal,” the spokeswoman said.
In the meantime it can only be hoped a good Samaritan will shoot the dangerous reptile and if there are no guns available tell Cairns News and we will put out a call for our Cairns readers to assist.
These crocs in the video were filmed a few kilometres from the washed out bridge so we hope in earnest local Labor member Curtis Pitt can put down his stubby long enough to jump in with these crocs to ascertain if they are dangerous. He could also call on his Labor colleagues in Cairns, Craig Crawford and Michael Healy to have a swim with him. It is, after all, summer weather, probably caused by climate change.
Not Coming. We have just heard Crawford and Healy are too busy trying to stop the notorious Kuranda Range Road from disappearing into the valley below after recent cable trenching for their spy cameras situated along the bitumen roadway caused massive washouts during the January rain depression
Author: There as just as many dangerous crocodiles in Townsville waterways.
Editor: Cairns Regional Council has erected a footbridge across the river since this story was fist published.
Aussiemal said – “How many billions of dollars did our governments spend over the last three years and continuing on a farce set up by foreign psychopaths?”
Hundreds of billions.
Australia’s national government debt is heading on up towards the TRILLION DOLLAR mark, if not already.
Don’t even ask about the TOTAL national debt – that’s already in the trillions, and steadily climbing.
Hooray for Scotty! Hooray for AnAL! Hooray for Dangerous Dan and Bug-Eyed Gunner! Hooray for Brad “The Hitman” Hazzard and his pox-faced sidekick! Hooray for Butt-Ugly Berejiklian and Poo-Face Palaszczuk! Hooray for all our brave men in uniform and all our dauntless soldiers! Hooray for creepy Bill and Smeagol Harari and Uncle Klaus!
Our Heroes! Our Saviours!
Unless, of course, you’re already homeless and starving or dead or soon will be.
Amazing! Governments can get their grubby hands on cash to lock us up, buy multi millions of face masks and”vaccines” for a non-existant virus but cannot raise enough finance to replace a little foot bridge. How many billions of dollars did our governments spend over the last three years and continuing on a farce set up by foreign psychopaths?
By the way I didn’t know that Queensland kids had to cross the river at night to attend school. Why else would the Wildlife Rangers be on lookout for the crocodiles at night? Maybe a bit of overtime payment?
Leave the croc alone and build the replacement foot bridge immediately you idiots.
The only way all this madness will end is a NUCLEAR WAR.
I remember ~ the mid nineties, getting told that they culled crocodiles in the Bloomfield river.
“Simple….. those wanting to check if the croc is dangerous,.. simple take your swag and camp by the river!”
If I may, I would like to nominate the spokeswoman’s kids and family as part of the investigation team.
““If they observe a crocodile and assess that it poses a risk to public safety, it will be targeted for removal,” the spokeswoman said. ”
Reminds me of the old “a cure is better than any prevention” motto.
Somebody might explain to the spokeswoman that crocodiles are capable of farting and endangering the local fish population.
Either way, if it’s a trans crocodile it should not be disturbed in case the local ratepayers are sued for discrimination.
And if it is a descendant of a local crocodile from some 65 million years ago it may even have some Waterway Rights which the spokeswoman should be mindful of not breaching.
Simple….. those wanting to check if the croc is dangerous,.. simple take your swag and camp by the river!
kjic1941 said – “… even dogs and cats where their owner has died and their left without food will eat you.”
Even Humans where their owner has died and they’re left without food will eat you.
Which should drive the point home. Especially when a big saltwater crocodile has the capacity to eat you even if haven’t already died.
Rather like a big stretch of bitumen – no-one should be playing on it if there’s traffic. And if we’re planning to let the kiddies play on it, best to fence the traffic off first.
the dept. of enviroment in australia (DOE) has got the same dickhead idiots running it as DOC (dept of conservation) in NZ..
The croc being there is not the bigger problem. Even if you remove it, the issue remains about access. If you look on the CRC website, they state that they will not fix that bridge until July 2025. Yes, 2025. However they have put a footbridge there (wow – isn’t technology incredible?!). There are houses there and kids getting to school is not the only movement that occurs. How are those residents supposed to travel to supermarkets, medical appts, jobs, etc. Walk across the footbridge and use taxi’s to get around at several hundred dollars a week? If their car is already on the gordonvale side of the bridge, are they supposed to walk their groceries or other large supplies over the footbridge and up the long road to the house? What if they now realise they are too remote and want to move out of there? they are stuck until mid 2025? Something odd is going here ….
Anyone that owns reptiles knows their brain doesn’t have the capacity to relate to being owned a pet, and loves you back, it’s conditioning they get use too, even dogs and cats where their owner has died and their left without food will eat you. If the croc is not getting the food needed it won’t think that’s a human, I can’t eat that, it’s survival pure and simple. Just because you have a croc that has been conditioned to seeing people and they are not a threat doesn’t mean it’s tame, just means they have an abundant food source and you’re not on the menu Yet.
Call up the local branch office of the Army in Cairns or Townsville and ask them to install a Bailey bridge over what is left of the destroyed bridge until the State government can afford to replace the bridge or just leave it there .
As far as the crocs are concerned ,the environment mob work in an airconditioned building high up above the crocs where they don’t ever come in contact with them unless they are visiting a wild life park while inventing new rules of their existence .

The environment will stay the same & not be effected if this occurs.
Yes indeed Smiley.
Yet the deluded, shit-for-brains planet savers are quite comfortable with the idea of us being told by Klaus et al at Davos that we must soon ‘eat zee bugs’, but how dare anyone even consider killing and eating a potentially dangerous large amphibious reptile! Which is no less wild than any insect species they tell us we must have a steady diet of, as an alternative to healthy, nutritious & protein rich meat. (including crocodile meat).
Perhaps they are protecting them in the hope that their numbers will rapidly increase exponentially so, like marauding packs of wild dogs: large packs of them will eventually be found roaming freely around every Australian town and city, looking for food such as dogs, cats, chickens and even humans – those ‘useless eaters’, the wonderful Davos gang want to rid their world of.
If that thing gets a bite in, then there is only going to be one winner.
According to the internet RM WILLIAMS Crocodile Boots are £2699, that’s like $4000, so who is getting all this money. I only went to Darwin briefly once but I seem to recall crocodile burgers on the menu, are these still available or has government cancelled them for safety
These fools should not have a job
Gentlemen:
Please inform your Environmental Department that according to my friend and associate Mick Dundee Salties will in fact eat children. They prefer chickens and dogs, or even dingoes in a pinch, but they will tucker in on a kid no worries.

Tell the plonker to go swimming with it.

Same old same old, folks.
The sold-out baby-eating Globalist sycophants in our self-appointed “elite” don’t work for us, they don’t answer to us, and they don’t listen to us. And they don’t give a flying crap about us beyond wanting us all dead.
What they DO do is periodically fart in our general direction. They can do this because their arses are habitually in our faces, and disturbingly a good proportion of Australians delight in licking them (especially the legions of employees of the foreign-owned COMMONWEALTH OF AUSTRALIA CORPORATION and its myriad subsidiary agencies).
Even throwing these bastards into the river with a pack of good sized hungry crocodiles won’t inspire them to do anything different, because they’ve already sold their souls to Satan, and they NEVER back down, they only ever DOUBLE DOWN.
But it WOULD make the world a far better place by removing them from our planet (assuming, of course, that the crocodiles can stomach such piles of dog faeces).
I am sure there is a Greens or Labor candidate who could personally go down to the Mulgrave and ascertain the danger.
As far as I know, Fred, who has occupied the same spot under the same tree for around five decades, only 300 M from the East Alligator’s Cahill’s Crossing, has never chomped anybody, and I have seen him go literally nose to nose to a stupid swimming dog before its even more stupid owner finally thought to call him back. I will presume the owner was from Brisbane.
But my point is, every croc is different; just as every other animal of each species is different. Most crocs have no interest in eating people but a certain sub-species of Queenslander Erectus Kennedyus gets hysterical at the mere mention of the word. Kill. Shoot. Machine gun. Nuke. Whatever. “The only good croc is a dead croc”, they drawl. “While you are at it, burn down every tree. This prevents forest fires”.
I guess somebody in the distant past sent most retarded Queenslanders up to Kennedy, which has proved great for the Katters. Perhaps we need NT Legislation preventing them from immigrating to the Top End. We locked all our retards up in the NT Parliament and when there are too many, we can always burn it down.
By the way, you woke lawyers, I am almost 81 and clearly non compus mentus so don;t even bother trying to arrest me for being non-inclusive. I have included every wanker, tosser, poofter, and tranny I can think of.
Farmers can be as stupid as the day is long.
I was a member of the Nationals when the Joh government passed this crocodile/snake, and I think shark, protection. I recall arguing with farmers at grass roots why this wasn’t a good idea but they mostly thought it was. They used all sorts of excuses like they keep the environment clean. All I could say was “What nonsense!” Things like crocs, snakes, sharks and flying foxes can survive an atomic bomb, let alone a few shooters. Yet we have most Aussies who worship these vermin, like the religions of old: Egypt for instance. Go to India, and talk to some of the 1200 tiger widows so far, or get a monkey who likes your house – it’s a big big crime to try to even move one, let alone a whole family. Cows, well at least they are useful but don’t kill one to eat. All animals are equal to humans just like in Australia where the vermin of our Aussies dictate to freedom lovers like me.
“…And God blessed them [Adam and Eve], and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth. Genesis 1:26…
Crocodiles are danderous & need to be culled & culled very strongly indeed. The environment will stay the same & not be effected if this occurs. No doubt many readers will be enraged by my comments however there numbers are totaly out of control & urgent actio needs to be taken for quite some years Cull Cull Cull as used to be done. No great loss.
