And they're everywhere!
Actually they're not. But the scary stories are, and the warning signs are on every beach and beachside footpath. And they want all the tourists to have a crocodile sighting or two. Who'd want to visit Far North Queensland and not see a croc?
Here are some freshwater crocs in the Cairns Zoom Dome zoo.
And here's the enormous saltwater croc they keep there, just under one of the zip lines that the more intrepid tourists zip along.
On the Daintree River cruise we saw one lurking at the water's edge. It was a miniature three-year-old one though, only about a metre long.
On the bus above the Bloomfield River, a very large one was pointed out, sitting stationary on the mud flat, with its mouth open. I think it was real.

The one below was in the new Cairns aquarium.
