TL;DR Summary

Two crocodiles, measuring 13-feet-5 inches and 9 feet long, were euthanized by wildlife officers in Australia after human remains were found inside them, believed to be those of a missing fisherman named Kevin Darmody. The incident occurred in the Kennedy River at Rinyirru (Lakefield) National Park, a known crocodile area. This is the 13th fatal crocodile attack in Queensland since 1985. Rangers killed the crocodiles "within 10 seconds of one another," and it is highly unusual to find two crocodiles feeding on one human victim.
