Crocodile hunting back on the agenda - Yippee!

Croc safari considered for Australian hunters

A group of Top End commercial hunters are planning to ask the Northern Territory Environment Minister to amend legislation to allow crocodile safari hunts for Australian residents.

A spokeswoman for Minister Marion Scrymgour says the Minister would not rule out the idea out at this stage.

A similar plan for international visitors was scrapped by the federal minister last year because the crocodile skins could not be exported.

The president of the Northern Territory Professional Hunters Association, Kevin Gleeson, says crocodile safaris would just be another animal management issue for the Government.

"It's no different to me than killing a buffalo... look at our barramundi, it just needs to be managed properly over the years," he said.

"It's a management bill, that's all it is to the Territory. It could add a lot of dollars to the Territory."
