A crocodile surprised Karumba locals on December 31 when it wandered onto the promenade in the early morning and decided to nap for the day.

Police and emergency services constructed a wheelie bin and hay bale barricade to hold the 3.5-metre reptile.


Experts were dispatched from Cairns, more than nine hours’ drive from Karumba, to relocate the croc. Credit: Lauren and Toby via Storyful
