A saltwater crocodile has eaten a dog that made a mockery of it for years, to the horror of onlookers.
At Goat Island Lodge, south of Darwin in the middle of the crocodile-infested Adelaide River, guests had gathered to watch pup Pippa perform her favourite trick running at Casey the crocodile to scare her back into the river.
But to the alarm of those looking on, including owner Kai Hansen, Pippa ran straight at her head and Casey "did what crocs do".
The video of Pippa being dragged into the water was made worse by the screams of bystanders, but serves as a bleak warning about the river's dangers.
As Mr Hansen conceded, "it was something that had a high probability of happening sometime".

Owner is a horse’s ass. Dogs get older - what was once amusing is now deadly.
That title reads like a Trump/Hillary relationship.
‘Hey, look what ma dog ken do’.
“Beloved” terrier?
Methinks its owner would not allow a “beloved” terrier to tangle with a toothy eating machine.
He trained that dog to risk its life ... eventually the inevitable happened ... it got overconfident ... and got too close to the “business end” of the croc ...
...the owner is a moron... which didn’t prevent him (or one of his accompanying moron friends) from gleefully sharing the video with the entire world...
Croc loved it, send more fresh dog.
On further analysis it looked as if Pippa mistook the gators tail for the gators head. Maybe Pippas older eyes failed him.
Im slower and older too.
Sometimes youre the bug, other times youre the windshield.
It’s fun until the croc eats the dog.
Which is why you don’t find croc parts in dog poop.
Croc’s and gator’s are often found with dog collars
in their stomachs.
I agree with that.
Hey, at least the moron owner got it on film.
Image is not my girl, but you get the drift.
He who laughs last....
Play stupid games...win stupid prizes.
Yeah, here comes Amos
Now Amos Moses was a Cajun
He lived by himself in the swamp
He hunted alligator for a living
He’d just knock them in the head with a stump
The Louisiana law gonna get you, Amos
It ain’t legal hunting alligator down in the swamp, boy
Now everyone blamed his old man
For making him mean as a snake
When Amos Moses was a boy
His daddy would use him for alligator bait
Tie a rope around his neck and throw him in the swamp
Alligator bait in the Louisiana bayou
About forty-five minutes southeast of Thibodaux, Louisiana
Lived a man called Doc Mills South and his pretty wife Hannah
Well, they raised up a son that could eat up his weight in groceries
Named him after a man of the cloth
Called him Amos Moses, yeah
Now the folks around south Louisiana
Said Amos was a hell of a man
He could trap the biggest, the meanest alligator
And he’d just use one hand
That’s all he got left ‘cause an alligator bit it
Left arm gone clear up to the elbow
Well the sheriff caught wind that Amos was in the swamp trapping alligator skin
So he snuck in the swamp gonna get the boy
But he never come out again
Well I wonder where the Louisiana sheriff went to
Well you can sure get lost in the Louisiana bayou
About forty-five minutes southeast of Thibodaux, Louisiana
Lived a cat called Doc Mills South and his pretty wife Hannah
Well, they raised up a son that could eat up his weight in groceries
Named him after a man of the cloth
Called him Amos Moses
Sit down on ‘em Amos!
Make it count son
About forty-five minutes southeast of Thibodaux, Louisiana
Lived a man called Doc Mills South and his pretty wife Hannah
