Thread: Surfing Croc Closes Beach in Australia

A GIANT 4m surfing croc has closed Broome’s iconic Cable Beach for a day before moving on.

While Perth beachgoers were enthralled with a 2000kg sub-adult southern elephant seal which had “hauled out’’ on a city beach, Broome locals and visitors were captivated by the 4m croc which took to Cable Beach’s gentle swell.

The croc hung around for most of Saturday but had moved on by Sunday.
Broome woman Sharon Scoble, who took these amazing photographs, said: “He was a big boy — his head was huge.’’

Local Parks and Wildlife officer Dave Woods said it is believed to be the same crocodile which has been spotted close to Broome in December. He said it was believed to be 3.5m-4m long.

Mr Woods said the animal would be targeted for removal to the Malcolm Douglas Wilderness Park, near Broome.

4m? Only a baby. Someone should have just waded out and given him a rap on the snout.
