CROCODILE ATTACK!

If you were swimming at the edge of the water in Southern Florida, USA, and you saw a crocodile coming towards you, what would you do?

Well, most of these are possible — the best thing to do depends on where the crocodile is at the time. If it comes towards you on land, experts say you should turn around and run away as fast as possible. Crocodile can run faster than humans over a short distance, but they soon get tired. if they miss their first chance to catch their victim, they usually start looking for something else.
If you’re in the water, then Splash around to make a noise so that the animal gets confused. If this doesn’t work, push your thumb or fingers into the crocodile’s eye. This is the most sensitive area of the crocodile’s body and it is the place where you can cause the animal the most pain. It will also be very surprised by your attack and it’s quite possible that it will decide to leave you alone. Don’t try and open the crocodile’s mouth because the muscles are so strong that this is nearly impossible. However, if the crocodile is in a bad mood, it’s possible that it will carry on
fighting. Your final opportunity is to pretend to be dead. If the crocodile thinks that its victim is dead, it opens its mouth for a few seconds to move the body into its throat. This can give you your last chance to escape, but
it’s a very dangerous plan. Our final advice? It’s much better to avoid crocodiles than to do any of the things above.

This week in Nature Weekly, one reader from Australia, Sheila Douglas, answers our questions about the animals in her country.

What’s the most dangerous animal in your country?

In the UK, people often ask me this question. It’s difficult to say which is the most dangerous animal. In Australia, we have a lot of dangerous animals and insects. There are snakes, crocodiles, spiders, sharks, jellyfish, and so on. You have to remember that animals can sometimes become aggressive if they get scared. So if you treat wild animals with respect, you should stay safe.

Are you afraid of any animals or insects?

I’m actually terrified of snakes! As a child, I lived in Northern Australia with my parents. In my opinion, the most dangerous snake there is the King Brown, which is common. It can be three metres long and is very poisonous.

So, what would you do if a poisonous snake like that bit you on the leg?

If I got bitten, I wouldn’t wash the bite or suck the poison out. I’d tie something round my leg and keep completely still. It’s important not to move if you’ve been bitten. Then I’d call for help as quickly as possible.

What’s your favourite animal?

I think it would be the koala, Australia’s most popular animal. Koalas have a soft, grey coat and people think they look very cute. They are not very active animals – they only move around for about two hours a day. And they eat and sleep the rest of the time.

If you could be an animal, which one would it be?

That’s easy. It’s not exactly an animal, but I’d be a Cairns Birdwing. It’s Australia’s biggest butterfly. It lives in the rainforest and flies high up in the tops of the trees. It’s a beautiful green and gold colour. And if I were a female Birdwing, I’d be 20 centimetres wide – that’s about 7 centimetres wider than the male.

So if you treat wild animals with respect, you should stay safe.

Are you afraid of any animals or insects?

I’m actually terrified of snakes! As a child, I lived in Northern Australia with my parents. In my opinion, the most dangerous snake there is the King Brown, which is common. It can be three metres long and is very poisonous.

So, what would you do if a poisonous snake like that bit you on the leg?

If I got bitten, I wouldn’t wash the bite or suck the poison out. I’d tie something round my leg and keep completely still. It’s important not to move if you’ve been bitten. Then I’d call for help as quickly as possible.

What’s your favourite animal?

I think it would be the koala, Australia’s most popular animal. Koalas have a soft, grey coat and people think they look very cute. They are not very active animals – they only move around for about two hours a day. And they eat and sleep the rest of the time.

If you could be an animal, which one would it be?

That’s easy. It’s not exactly an animal, but I’d be a Cairns Birdwing. It’s Australia’s biggest butterfly. It lives in the rainforest and flies high up in the tops of the trees. It’s a beautiful green and gold colour. And if I were a female Birdwing, I’d be 20 centimetres wide – that’s about 7 centimetres wider than the male.
