The body of a man who went missing in Australia's Queensland state while fishing with his friends, was found inside a crocodile
...
The 65-year-old victim, Kevin Darmody, was last seen at Kennedy's Bend -- a well-known saltwater crocodile habitat in a remote part of northern Queensland -- on April 30,
...
Although the body is yet be formally identified, the police have said that it was a "tragic ending" to the search for Darmody, who was an experienced fisherman.
Crocodiles are common in Australia's tropical north
...
Darmody's death is the 13th fatal attack in Queensland since record-keeping began in 1985.
So sad…Locals used to call Kevin Darmody the “Crocodile Whisperer”
technically i think he drowned...
the crocs gonna git a bad rap on this...
Just too bad they had to euthanize the animals.
It’s always in the last place you look.
For some reason I immediately thought of Monty Python’s Crocodile sketch.
LOL : )
Crocs gotta eat too.
Well, I guess that’s the last place they thought to look.
Somehow it is all global warming.
If it were Florida Man, it would be a Gator. That helps to keep the animals straight.
What a strange place for him to hide out.
Just wondering how many crocs they had to go through before they found someone. They’re not sure it’s him. He may still be in another croc, or maybe he just decided to go on a walkabout.
And April 30th’s winner of the hide and seek competition iizzzzzz......
(Drum roll)
As defense attorney for the crocodile, I would argue the fisherman could have fell into the water because he had a heart attack caused by the vaccine and my client was just performing clean up.

I give you now Professor Twist,
A conscientious scientist,
Trustees exclaimed, "He never bungles!"
And sent him off to distant jungles.
Camped on a tropic riverside,
One day he missed his loving bride.
She had, the guide informed him later,
Been eaten by an alligator.
Professor Twist could not but smile.
"You mean," he said, "a crocodile."
Everything in Oz can kill ya.
Or so I have heard.
The bloody things are protected in Australia. Go figure.
Did they just gut every croc they could find until they found the fellow?
