A wildlife park worker in Papua New Guinea died after being seriously injured by a crocodile that held onto him for over an hour. The incident occurred on Saturday afternoon at Adventure Park in Port Moresby when the handler was feeding the animal when it suddenly attacked, grabbing his legs with its powerful jaws. Video footage captured the crocodile dragging the man into the water and performing a "death roll," a technique crocodiles use to subdue prey by twisting their bodies while maintaining a firm grip. Several attempts were made to free the worker, including another employee striking the crocodile on the head and a visitor pushing a pole through the enclosure’s fence, but none were successful. Witnesses, including Koibuga Remdi, described the scene as chaotic and dangerous, with people watching helplessly as the man struggled. Police were called, and once they arrived, workers began pumping water out of the pond to create a path for rescuers. Despite these efforts, the crocodile continued to hold onto the handler, who lost a significant amount of blood. According to Remdi, some workers claimed the crocodile had lived at the park for many years and had never attacked before. However, this time, it turned on its caretaker. Police eventually shot the animal multiple times, but it took 11 shots for the crocodile to die, after which the handler was finally pulled from the water. The injured worker was rushed to 3 Mile General Hospital with severe injuries but died the following morning. A visitor, Gibson John, recounted the harrowing moment, saying the worker had brought a chicken near the enclosure before the attack. John described the man’s pain and confusion, noting he could only say, "I haven’t done anything wrong." The victim, who had worked at the park for about two years, has not been officially identified, and the exact cause of the attack remains unclear. This incident comes months after videos surfaced online showing employees at Adventure Park interacting very closely with crocodiles, raising concerns about safety protocols. In one video, a worker stood inches from a crocodile’s head and splashed water at it, while in another, a staff member touched a massive crocodile on the nose. These behaviors had sparked questions about the park’s practices, though it is not known if they contributed to this tragedy. Following the death, Adventure Park has closed, and no reopening date has been announced.
