I almost forgot to mention this event..

In the 1st day of the flood (Nov 5th), the tide wave destroyed a part of Samarinda natural park's wall.. Unfortunately, that was the wall from crocodile's place..

So it was reported that from 13 crocs, 7 fled on that day.. But the crocs just stayed in fishing pond in the same natural park.. On the day after, the team can catch 3 crocs, and then 2 crocs (died because of eating each other, cannibalism, it was reported like that) and then 1 croc..

Until now, team still hunting 1 croc.. And it was reported that the croc fled further to the branch river and threats peoples life.. Police, croc's expert, and others in charge are cooperating to catch the last 1..

yup, only 1 croc..

several times, peoples reported to police station about croc appearance in their place (different place), but until now, the croc's location still blur..

croc can easily flee further because of the flood, and as you know, when the moon phase begin to hold a full moon, the flood level will increase..
