What do you mean by "misinformed" ?
Are you saying they don't shoot them ?
I will disagree with you on that.
I will change my wording in that they don't "waste" them
as they eat them, but the same result could be achieved if
a paid hunter shot them.
Just my HO.
There is more to people taking crocs than in eating or resource useage (hides). Some people have a totemic association and therefore a direction to observe traditional conservational practices etc.
(as have others)
I think NAILSMA has some generic info. Otherwise talk to local fellas across the top end
Kamilaroi,
Obviously as they local people would be the landowners in the area/local council etc, if they have a problem with the taking or hunting of crocodiles, they wouldn't have to let it happen in the areas that are sensitive. Or do they still take them but under specific circumstances eg as you mention "traditional conservational practices"? Interesting. Please elaborate if you are able.
