Nude sun bathers bolt from Aussie beach to avoid crocodile

A crocodile is not a creature you are likely to enjoy an encounter with at any time but having one come lunging out of the water when you're nude sunbathing is particularity unsettling. In Broome, Australia, a recent croc warning sent nudists scrambling.

It happened Monday on Cable Beach in Broome, a tourist town in Western Australia some 1400 miles north of Perth. A crocodile about 4 metres long was spotted by life guards and by at least one swimmer. The alert went out and the clothes, and shoes, went on as the naked beat a hasty retreat.

...

Australia's saltwater crocodiles are dangerous to humans and in recent years attacks have been more common. A man was killed by a crocodile as he swam in the Northern Territories last August and last November both a male and female child were killed in separate incidents, also in the Northern Territories.

In April 2010 I went into the ‘Glades to fish for bass. We were in a bass boat, about 2-3 feet out of the water. A gator followed us for miles and I caught lots of bass and threw them back in. I also caught lots of bowfin (trash fish) and threw them to the gators who followed us for miles. As I was fishing in the back of the boat, a gator was trying to crawl into the boat. I told the guide, “I really like nature and shit like that, but this is getting kinda scary.” He was fishing and said “Jes’ kick him in the F’ng head. (In my best down South accent)”. I looked at the gator and told the guide “I spent 1600 bucks on this, YOOU come back here and YOU Kick him in the F’ng head.’ He whacked him with the net.

Good afternoon.

I grew up (3-9 years of age) in Clewiston. I've had everything from alligators to moccasins try to get in the boat. Moral of story, always carry a .357, you never know when you will need it. [The bear, and otter were interesting stories]

Sounds like a plot that could sell even more DVD's than Sharknado

It may be nekkid, but it looks like a caiman not a croc.
