Irwin's revenge

North Queensland police have found a 1.5 metre crocodile hanging by a noose from a tree.

Residents of Seaforth, north of Mackay, reported seeing the reptile in the tree this morning.

Acting Senior Constable Tara Stanton says police are investigating how the crocodile was killed and why it was strung up in the tree.

"I first heard a report this morning of the croc and thought I'd come down myself to see whether it was true or not and get in touch with the appropriate people to see if we can have the croc removed from the tree," she said.
