First comment. I don't think there is any intention to hunt fresh water crocs. The safari talk is all saltwater crocs.

The question of any chance? I doubt it, but would hope there was. The Northern Territory, Queensland and Western Australia, the cattlemen, the Aboriginals, the hunters and outfitters, were all for it. Some of the croc breeders were against it. The ffffwit Urwins of course, other greens and antis against it. And the Federal govt was against it. The export permits can not happen without Federal govt approval.

"We don't want any foreign thrill killers in Australia" was the comment by the Federal Minister, a fat ugly gross cow from South Australia regarding the idea of a croc safari industry. Stupid fat bitch ...

They have tried at least times for a saltie croc safari industry and been turned down.

All logic says it should happen.

Antis and the leftie media which today control our puppet govts do not use logic for sensible decisions.

I hope it happens. But can't see it.

HOWEVER some of our members and my acquaintance HAVE hunted saltwater crocs and taken skins as souvenirs and trophies. They have taken them legally, and how? Some have been part of a limited scheme. I believe one croc did cost more than a few pennies! I saw the skin with CptCurl at the guys house when up there. Some through Aboriginals as problem crocs, and potential or actual maneaters. Most of the guys are locals up there, or good contacts with the Aboriginal communities.
