Boy, 7 Sneaks Into Zoo And Goes On A Killing Spree Before Feeding Animals To Crocodile!!!!!!!
Boy, 7, who sneaked into a zoo and fed animals to giant crocodile.
A blank-faced seven-year-old boy broke into a popular Outback zoo, fed
a string of animals to the resident crocodile and bashed several
lizards to death with a rock, the zoo's director said today.
The boy jumped a security fence at the Alice Springs Reptile Centre in
central Australia early on Wednesday, then went on a 30-minute killing
spree.
He used a rock to slay three lizards, including the zoo's beloved,
20-year-old goanna, which he then fed to 'Terry', an 11ft saltwater
crocodile, according to zoo director Rex Neindorf.
The boy, whose deadly acts were caught on the zoo's security camera,
also threw several live animals to Terry over the two fences
surrounding the crocodile's enclosure.
At one point, the youngster climbed over the outer fence to get closer to the giant reptile.
In the footage, the boy's face remains largely blank.
'It was like he was playing a game,' Mr Neindorf said.
He killed 13 animals worth around £3,000, including a turtle, bearded dragons and thorny devil lizards.
Although none were rare, some would be difficult to replace, the zoo director added.
'We're horrified that anyone can do this, and saddened by the age of the child,'Neindorf said.
Alice Springs police said they identified the boy, who lives locally, but were unable to press charges because of his age.
Children under age 10 are not criminally liable under the law in the Northern Territory.
'By all accounts, he's quite a nasty 7-year-old,' said Neindorf, who plans to sue the boy's parents.
'If we can't put the blame onto the child, then someone has to accept the responsibility.'
The zoo's security system, which relies on sensors, probably did not detect the boy because he is so small, Neindorf said.
