Two fishermen have rescued a naked fugitive who they found sitting on a tree branch in Australian crocodile habitat.
Kev Joiner and Cam Fraust, both recreational fishers, found the 40-year-old in East Point, close to the city of Darwin on Sunday.
The friends said they heard Luke Voskresensky shout out for help as they were setting crab traps from their dinghy in the swamp.
They said Voskresensky - who was covered in mud, cuts and insect bites - begged them for a drink of clean water, and said that he had been living off snails for four days.
Mr Fraust said he had been using his clothes "for bits and pieces over the way".
