Good on you, Bulla.

Crocodile is my favorite meat.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

A remote Australian community has taken revenge on a massive saltwater crocodile by eating the 3.6-meter (11.8-foot) beast blamed for devouring pets and chasing children.

On Wednesday, police in the town of Bulla in Australia’s Northern Territory shot the crocodile after deeming it a “significant risk to the community.”

In a statement, Northern Territory Police said the predator “had been stalking and lunging out of the water at children and adults” and had “also reportedly taken multiple community dogs.”

Both the saltwater and freshwater crocodile species are protected in Australia, where hunting the animals has been banned by federal law since 1971 – a time when poaching had driven them close to extinction.

“Any body of water in The Top End may contain large and potentially dangerous crocodiles,” said government wildlife specialist Kristen Hay, using a colloquial name for the Northern Territory.

A nine-year-old boy was lucky to survive a crocodile attack in the Northern Territory’s Kakadu National Park in January, after being hospitalized with “puncture wounds.”
