And like Mike says, we should stop feeding the crocs or at least try to slow that down. It is a receipe for trouble. It does not help them or their environment if they get overpopulated with extra food and they should not have too much close contact with humans, it just won't have a happy ending. The lagoon has a carrying capacity and we know what overpopulation leads too, pollution and disease and we can have some of that hit us too if the lagoon gets too polluted from them and us. I know we all want things to be simple and not too many rules etc. but....hey more people more thought has to go into at least some things....sorry D. They are wild animals that are feeding at a basic level. Their instincts trigger them to lunge when hungry at any object that drinks at the waters edge or crouches nearby, it is a automatic target/trigger. It is like running from a Cheeta. this it is not overreacting......... it just seems good for the crocs and the kids etc.
