A 66-year-old woman was mauled to death by a huge crocodile on the Indonesian island of Sumatra, police said on Saturday (Feb 24).

The Indonesian woman's family and neighbours launched a search after she failed to return home from a riverside garden near the remote village of Teluk Kuali in Jambi province earlier this week.

Locals became suspicious she had been attacked after seeing a huge crocodile near a boat containing her belongings, police said.

They also have giant rats there, but that is a story for which the world is not yet prepared.

There was a guy on a Australian tourist boat on the stern who made the mistake of looking down into the water. A croc came up and grabbed him and pulled him under the water and ate him.

We killed and ate them.

That’s why crocodiles don’t rule the earth.

They are really poor administrators, anyway.
