Qld: Rains blamed for crocodile activity
People in north Queensland have been warned to beware of crocodiles after two brothers
caught one in a creek in the centre of Cairns on Sunday night.
Queensland Parks and Wildlife Service ranger BRIAN WRIGHT says the crocodile could
have swum into the creek following heavy rains and high tides.
Brothers ADAM and GARY LESZCZEWICZ caught the 1.8m crocodile in Fearnley Creek while
cast-netting for bait.
It was the second they had caught in the creek.
Six months ago they pulled a 1.4-metre crocodile from the same creek.
