Juvenile crocodile spotted in a Newcastle creek far from its tropical home

A 12-year-old in Newcastle, Australia, reported a juvenile freshwater crocodile in Ironbark Creek—about 1,200 miles from the species’ tropical range. After initial doubt, authorities confirmed the sighting, and the croc was captured two miles from the original report and taken to the Australian Reptile Park for care while officials decide its permanent home. The animal, Crocodylus johnstoni, is protected by law, and police suspect it may have been released from a pet, though it remains potentially dangerous.
