Man-eating crocodiles eat at least SIX people collecting water from river's edge

Villagers in Tanzania have been preyed upon as they collect water from a river swarming with man-eating crocodiles, with at least six falling prey since the start of the year

Sounds like a good idea to implement at the Rio Grand river along Texas!

Pirhanas would be the second choice!

Do they only eat men or are women safe?

I spent 5 1/2 years in Australia and in the northern outback areas the locals would advise ... " Never swim at the same spot of the river two days in a row "

The logic was that animals being creatures of habit would water at the same place and time daily . Crocs know this and once noting activity will lie in wait at that spot .

I was always crapping my pants wondering .... " How do I know someone didn't swim here yesterday ? "

yeah, yeah.
Crocks are huge. I watched a vid once where this wildebeest dipped his snoot into a pool and this crock about the size of a 1 ton truck grabbed onto his face and pulled him in. They're pretty expensive I'd guess. We don't need any that big.
Just to add a little creepiness; we could dam up the river way down stream so the piranhas stay put. It's for the environment.
But then the border patrol guys would have to take a cut in pay because there would be less work. There's just no answer to the immigration problem.
