So you're riding along in North Queensland, and a pig hunter just walks out in front of you.
Do you dart in front and insist on getting your right of way?
Or do you say "After you, old chap"?

Or who needs dinosaurs when we have these? 🙂
I would give way to that chap, probably by running away....
I also give way to snakes, blue tongues, wombats & roos.
Perfect for some bunnyhop practice, surely?
Who the **** bit the end of his tail off?
I would definitely give way to them.
If you do happen to ever get chased by a croc do not run in a straight line.. They are surprisingly fast but no good at changing direction due to their short legs and long body. Do a zig zag run....

Is that a micro pig?
Everyone knows that crocodiles can swim faster than a man.
Not everyone knows that crocodiles can run faster than men.
So if you are up against one in a triathlon you'd better be bloody good on a bike!
😀
[no i shouldn't]mandatory helmet law so you'd be safe 8)
and think in Queensland if you find the other road user's too intimidating then you are encouraged to ride on the pavement[sorry]
I'd tell it to get out of the way, and make it snappy. Therefore ensuring that when it eats me it'll come as a relief after the shame of that joke
^ That had me crying
just shout STRAVA !
Easy bunnyhop the tail.
hes a big boy isnt he...

think this joke was from the same book "as I'll have a crocodile sandwich and make it snappy"
"I'm not starting another elephant for just one sandwich!"
on the plus side you can see that a lot easier...
the day I didn't see the tiger snake was a twitchy one
the brown snake that looked like a stick
the blue tongue that looked like a breeze block
Saturday was 2 damm wallabies that tried to take me out
all of which I couldn't see coming
Just take the lane, if you're in primary it will respect your right to the road and let you pass.
Perfect for some bunnyhop practice
that's no bunny*
*I'm not a zoologist
oh and in respect to actual pig hunters the ex MIL was in hospital and from the next door cubicle was the tale of how the pig hunter had been out and got surprised by said wild pig and managed to shove his manly hunting knife into himself 😉 Got to love them

Tsk,you were meant to ask if they were crocodile tears. 🙄 🙂

No, that's a TAIL.
Ok, I'm aware that we shouldn't project our human emotions onto animals.
But that croc looks well chuffed!
They dont like being evicted either

Main reason why Salties are more dangerous than the sharks; the sharks can't chase you out of the water and up the beach!

Unless it's lurking in the water with only its nostrils poking out...

Sharks are no problem. This is a pic from the NT but there was similar one taken near my place where the croc was on a sandbar. Crocs erupt, they're incredibly fast ambush predators.

I lived backing on to the mangroves, and there was a really big brute who liked to hang around just off our back.
I put up a fence to make sure he couldn't come visiting and lunching on my minicyclos. He'd just sit in the murky water almost completely invisible. Needless to say this was absolutely fascinating for the sprogs who used to hang around next to the fence watching him watching them. It made launching my kayak a bit exciting.
Meanwhile some Aboriginal kids used to cast net across the creek up to their knees in the mud, totally unconcerned. They knew he was there, I told them often enough.
"Bad Mr Tiddles! You're a bad crocodile, you put that pig down right this minute or it'll be no treats tonight!"
No treats or no pudding?
