Crocodile Attacks Lawnmower

At the Australian Reptile Park in Gosford, New South Wales, a crocodile known as Elvis has attacked a lawnmower. The 50-year-old croc lost two teeth in the attack, which occurred after a zookeeper tried to cut the lawn in his enclosure.

It makes me think of the 'Christopher - right back - pub' by Schweppes, couple of years ago...

Now I know what to carry the next time I visit a swamp.

Was he trying to mow the lawn, or was he using the mower as a distraction? They tend to do that in most crocodile enclosures.

I think it's something about the vibrations and noise of the mower that attracts the croc. I could be wrong though!
