Australian Community Turns Dangerous Crocodile into Feast

Residents of Bulla, Northern Territory, prepared a large saltwater crocodile for a traditional feast after it was deemed a threat to public safety.

The crocodile had been stalking children and adults, as well as attacking pets in the community.
Authorities, in consultation with local elders, decided to trap and shoot the crocodile.
The animal was prepared and cooked in various traditional ways, including crocodile tail soup and barbecue.
Northern Territory has a significant crocodile population, with over 100,000 in the wild.
A new management plan aims to increase the number of crocodiles removed annually to ensure public safety.
