$250,000 crocodile
I see in the Age (or was it the Australian yesterday where a safari operator has got the go ahead to organize four hunts for man eating crocs in PNG for a cool $250,000 each.

He thinks the opportunities will go real fast.

I think he said the safaris will be 10 days in length.

Now, what could I do with that amount of money?

It must be a miss print??????
Big Nile crocs with all the trimmings in Africa dont bring even a tenth of that price..why would you then if its not a m/print

I think there would be a pretty good profit in it for him. It wouldnt cost too much to pay off the land owners to pop a few of their crocs. They dont realy put much value on Puk Puks as they call crocs. It cost me nothing to join some locals with this a few years ago, using a 303 with old military ammo.


Sympathy please ,I have champagne tastes and beer budget

I don't believe it! A journalist has probably got his facts wrong even after the usual exhaustive research and verification!

For that price naw I dont think so.
Let see what could I do with 250K
New house, furnished
used car
used truck
couple non hunting vacations with girlfriend
African Safari
a few other things and still have plenty left to invest.
