Hunting a man-eating croc

Killer caught: Sabah Wildife rangers posing with the crocodile after it was shot in Tawau.

KOTA KINABALU: A process of “deduction and elimination” helped wildlife rangers pick out and kill a man-eating crocodile in Tawau.

Sabah Wildlife Department director Augustine Tuuga said the rangers were surveying the crocodile-infested area around Kg Sungai Mas Mas for a while and zoomed in on the largest reptile in the area.
