follow us in feedly A crocodile was hunted and killed after it attacked and ate a 55 year old fisherman. Reports reveal that villagers at Riau province Indonesia, on the central eastern coast of Sumatra facing the Strait of Malacca, got together to help to catch the crocodile.

When the crocodile was eventually captured and killed, the villagers then cut open the crocodile’s belly to confirmed if it had eaten the victim.

According to the fisherman’s friend ‘Toha’, on Sunday night a 4 metre crocodile pulled the 55 year old man ‘Syafri’ straight into the Lakar River. Toha managed to scramble up the muddy banks to safety after witnessing the reptile attack his friend at close quarters.

He says he tried his hardest to attract the crocodile’s attention before deciding to call for help.

This article, for some strange reason or other, reminds me of a story that I heard many years ago OCONUS.

It seems that a cannibal speared a comedian. Thereafter he cooked & ate the man that he speared.

He said that the fellow tasted funny.

The crocodile was just starting to turn his life around, and was planning to enroll in community college in the fall.
