CONCERNS have been raised after footage showing a crocodile lunge at a fisherman was captured on the banks of the Ross River.
The video which was shared to YouTube last week was captured at Kelso and shows what is believed to be a freshwater crocodile lying still in the water before it lunges at the man unprovoked.
Wildlife officers from the Department of Environment and Science investigated a crocodile sighting in that area after a member of the public reported a potential crocodile sighting at Framara Park.
A department spokeswoman said the sighting was reported on December 31, 2020 and no further action was taken following the investigation.
