Camera-shy croc snaps tourist | NEWS.com.au: "A BELGIAN tourist tried to take a snap of crocodile in North Queensland, but the croc snapped first.
Queensland Parks and Wildlife Service (QPWS) spokesman Mark Read says the 24-year-old male tourist splashed water to 'attract a crocodile' to photograph it at Cape Tribulation, about 350km north of Cairns, today.
'It wasn't a good idea,' Dr Reid said.
A 2m crocodile 'rapidly emerged' from the water and bit the tourist on the knee.
He was given first aid by a local before being taken to Mossman Hospital – almost 300km away – for further treatment."
