This has been reported in timesofindia.indiatimes.com dated 4 August 2015.
As indicated by the local authorities there are at least 50 crocodile heads - but could be as many as 70 – that had been stuffed inside the freezer. The NT national parks and wildlife officers have begun investigations.
Crocodiles are a protected species in Australia and anyone convicted of killing the animal has to shell out a fine of $55,779 or five years in jail. Every year, a few permits are issued for local hunters – mainly to kill or remove crocodiles that pose a danger to the community.
Incidentally, the skin of the crocodiles are extremely valuable in the global fashion industry.
