## Resource

A chilling close call at Cahills Crossing in Kakadu has officials warning tourists and locals alike: crocodiles are not toys, and standing near water is never safe. A massive saltwater croc swam right up to a family with kids, stopping mere meters from the causeway — likely lured by a fisherman’s lure, not the humans. Experts say crocs don’t hunt humans like that — but human behavior, especially risky local habits, keeps the danger real. While NT’s croc management is top-tier, it’s up to people to respect the wild. Tourists may heed warnings — locals sometimes don’t. The message? Stay vigilant. The frontier spirit is admirable — but crocodiles don’t care about your bravado. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
