Correct me if im wrong, but isnt a portion of the 600(?) that are killed large ones in remote areas that are feeding on stock?

As the poll says, its not the nuisance crocs that will be targeted but the big mature males

Killing large males won't effect the popluation at all. Smaller males can breed just fine and eat less food

What like in a national park? most privatly own land would have livestock on it, even aboriginal land usually has livestock.
I think its very important to have ares set aside but i havnt read or seen anything to make me think that this proposal will lead to new areas being included.
I would be opposed to croc hunting if was done in an area where the croc isnt causing a problem but that isnt the case as far as i know.

A croc shouldn't be killed IMO if it kills the odd stock animal, only if it is a genuine threat to humans.
