YOU SAID IT! How many crocs is a load of croc?
LETTERS AND COMMENTS
Glenise Sharp
Crocs breed a huge amount of babies and one day, whether the locals like it or not, there will be a cull.
Marie Spence
Glenise Sharp of which many don't make it past the first year... even crocs will eat them. They self-regulate so numbers will not get to an imbalanced proportion. No culls needed, just education of humans, especially tourists. It's their home and should be respected. This should not still be getting debated.
Jonathan Foster
Glenise Sharp don't worry too much about all these croc lovers that are disagreeing with your comments, you are totally correct and the sooner the better before another person gets taken.
Brydie Lee
We should be celebrating our unique wildlife! Education and awareness of our wild animals should be promoted.
Mim Hayward
Learning about how to be Crocwise should be taught in schools. You have that for life then. Education, education, education. Lived there 15 years and adored all the wildlife. I felt extremely privileged to be living amongst those dinosaurs. Just incredible creatures.
Cherylene Brooke Turner
FQN is a wonderful place to holiday visit and live. Though, it is important to be Crocwise when visiting FNQ.
Baz Fellows
Crocs are a drawcard, people moving to Port need to take into account the wildlife before they move up, it’s like moving to Melbourne and getting upset there’s a crack head in st kilda, or moving to Sydney and getting pissed off at a $20 Guinness. Crocs contribute more than influencers on the Gold Coast.
Myka Morris
Celebrating them, they are a living dinosaur... isn't that cool!! And sharks same issue. People need to understand we are the problem. They were here before we decided to build houses next to flooding rivers and disappearing coastlines.
Jackie Driscoll
Celebrate the ones that are of no harm to humans, ie, ones in Mowbray, etc. But cull or relocate once they pose a risk in populated areas.
Port Douglas Crocs snatch footy premiership

Cracking game of footy, last qtr was epic.
Fallen tree carnage in Port Douglas
Steve Bathurst
You cannot cover big tree roots with bitumen. It happens a lot. A tree that size should have much more space around it NOT covered in bitumen. That tree was there when I worked in Port in 1994. Only a matter of time. I hope the timber is used and not chipped.
Leonard Vaughan
Hope it's not the tree of knowlege in front of the Central.
Vicki Tye
Where's the tree huggers?
Den Brincat
You forgot to add the 70km/winds that happened in Port Douglas and most of Queensland coast.
Ashley Egan
Will council be footing the bill to repair the cars seeing as they neglected to provide a safe area to park in?
Lin Snll
U can’t park there mate.
Janice Parkes
Building those garden beds around 1983! If this is one of the original trees we planted, would be 43 years old. Shame the roots couldn’t hold it up any longer.
