When I was a boy growing up in Darwin, N.T. there was no real danger from freshwater crocodiles and almost no saltwater crocodiles. We camped where we wanted to camp, we walked in swamps and we slept on the beaches. We did so without fear. With the exception of a few places, we went into the water as and when we pleased, without any concern for our safety. It was a wonderful life.<\/p><p>My real experiences began when I met Harold Harmer, who was born and bred in Darwin. Harold\u2019s family had the first taxi in Darwin. My first sighting of Harold and his brother Norman was at Buffalo Creek. I saw them swimming in the creek at the same time my eyes took in the dead 3 metre saltwater crocodile on the bank. I thought, &#8220;Crazy bastards!&#8221; Little did I know that Harold would become one of my best friends.\u00a0 We had some great times and by today\u2019s standards we were a bit extreme, I guess. But that\u2019s the way it was.<\/p><p>With Harold\u2019s encouragement I hunted barefoot in ancient swamps and dark steamy jungles. I remember that in 1963 we hunted in Black Jungle Swamp where the thick green water was so deep that it reached my chest. It was ominous. Snakes slithered through the canopy and huge spiders dropped from above. When wading through the deep water we had to place our bare feet carefully in the thick mud because there were spiky leaves ,fallen from pandanus trees, but there was no thought of monsters.<\/p><p>No, the idea that a huge saltwater crocodile would suddenly lunge from nowhere and kill us did not even enter our heads.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-6579294 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"6579294\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-b999422\" data-id=\"b999422\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3f3f425 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"3f3f425\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>SOURCE: Bamurrahttps:\/\/www.alquemie.com.au\/category\/aboriginal-culture\/<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-05b75cd elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"05b75cd\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-90b7519\" data-id=\"90b7519\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ce36e01 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"ce36e01\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>CURRENT SITUATION:<\/p><p>Sad to say, the situation has drastically changed in the Northern Territory. I can tell you without fear of contradiction that it has <u>vastly altered<\/u> in this specific location. Check the list of Attacks. Go back to the year 2009 to find something very sad. I think that is much more than sad that an 11-year-old girl was killed by a saltwater crocodile in that very same jungle.

I have an enormous interest in saltwater crocodiles and great memories of the place where I grew up, Darwin N.T. \nBut I really had not seen the obvious. What is happening now is more than most can understand.<br>There are way too many crocodile attacks, people terrified, children killed and eaten. <br>And why? <br>It is hard to understand that the quality of life and living must be so seriously degraded so that more and more saltwater crocodiles can thrive. While I appreciate crocodiles and even more so admire them, I cannot agree to put them before humans the way it is now.<br>Yes, I am saying that places where I grew up as a teenager are now off-limits, or \"go and take your chances\" with a monster lurking in the deep. Innocent men, women, and children are being attacked, mutilated, and even devoured for what real purpose?<br>The famous shark movie \"Jaws\" instilled fear when it came to swimming in the ocean. But crocodiles come out of the water and attack people sleeping peacefully in their tents.<br>Are they monsters? Read about it here!<br>Are there really a lot of crocodile attacks? Read about it here!<br>Go to the Attacks Page.....Thanks for listening.<\/div>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-testimonial-meta elementor-has-image
