Great story. I would never camp close to a beach or a river in the North
-those salties scare the hell out of me!

Cheers

There was another recent attack where a saltie treed a couple of young
men. It kept them in the tree for most of the night. I was rather
surprised to read that, and this story, as I always thought crocs were
ambush predators, not active predators. Something about being eaten, just
isn't a nice way to go.

Why would it leave, it knew where "lunch" was?
