It is illegal to interfere with the animals in Australia.
, a crocodile expert at Charles Darwin University, told Yahoo News Australia he has seen"a lot" of crocodiles in a similar state over the years.
He explained people will come across a dead crocodile and cut off the head to keep as a souvenir."But often the animal was deliberately or accidentally killed ," he said. A person who doesn't like crocodiles may have shot the animal, he suggested. "Whatever the reason, they clearly thought the head would make a nice souvenir on the veranda, which is illegal without a permit and risky business because word has a habit of spreading,"Last year, three crocodiles were found decapitated in a Far North Queensland creek bed in as many months, Australian broadcaster ABC reported.told ABC:"they're an intrinsic part of the Australian wildlife and for somebody to just go ahead and do this is frankly a bit disturbing.
Crocodiles are protected under Northern Territory, Australian and international laws, according to the authorities. A permit is required to"take or interfere" with crocodiles in the Northern Territory. These are usually given to ranges, or land managers"to trap or shoot problem crocodiles where there is a clear need to do so and there is no other alternative," the Northern Territory website states.
