Crocs are the new sharks, it seems. Just days after two men – in two separate incidents – were killed by crocodiles in Australia, a 10-year-old girl on the coast of remote northwestern Australia was attacked but not killed. "She suffered injuries to her arms, chest and back, which weren't life threatening," a police spokeswoman said. No information about how the girl escaped is available at this time.
Crocodile expert Malcolm Douglas claims that crocodiles became more aggressive during breeding season and that the risk of attacks increases as more people travel into Australia’s outback.
