Our first croc captured on the 2018 crocodile research trip. Earl was named in a competition held by the Discovery Network, as part of the launch of Crikey! It’s the Irwins season one. As can be seen from his tracking data, this is one well-traveled croc!

This research is made possible each year with the help of Wildlife Warriors, The University of Queensland and our generous sponsors. This vital program is the longest continuous study of crocodiles in the world and helps us to live alongside them and help them, as a vulnerable Australian species.

We invite you to be part of our annual crocodile research trip by donating or sponsoring your very own gorgeous crocodile!
