Huge hitchhiking crocodile needs a bigger ride

3/19/2013

They need a bigger truck. This monster crocodile measuring more 15.7 feet was caught at Palumpa, in Australia's Northern Territory, and was a mighty wide load for this pick-up to handle. Parks and Wildlife Ranger Tommy Nichols said police and council officers trapped and shot the croc in a waterway on the outskirts of town after it was "menacing the kids." Fun-loving local children will just have to dare each other to smile at another deadly beast for kicks. [Source]
