9:31 PM
Things look bleak for me, my temp soared to a high of 40 deg celcius today. I was relagated to the sofa or the bed, unable to move with ease. So the TV was my companion. I was watching discovery channel, and they were showing this programme "Hunter Hunted" earlier this morning. They depicted the scenes from the Sandy Billabong incident in Australia.
Ok the story in a nutshell, this group of tourist were swimming in the billabong in the darkness of the night in crocodile infested water 5 metres deep. Disaster was inevitable, they were just gambling with their lives. True enough disaster struck and one lady was dragged under by a crocodile 14 feet long which was shot dead later on.
Thing is the scientist found out what pushed the croc to attack humans, and guess what? It's because of its injured snout and it was rather skinny. Therefore forcing it to pick on weaker prey such as humans. There was another episode on this lion in FIJI with a deformed canine tooth, also preyed on humans because of it's deformed tooth. They flashed a picture of the poor lion, wah lao the face and body was so badly bruised and the mane on the poor lion was kinda ripped off also. Oh ya and the croc was shot 5 times and harpooned twice.
Thats animal cruelty they should have asked the animals first before killing them. Humans ah......
