Father Watches Helplessly as 10-Year-Old Daughter is Snatched by Crocodile

Father Watches Helplessly as 10 Year Old Daughter is Snatched by CrocodileA father in Indonesia watched powerlessly as a crocodile snatched his 10-year-old daughter in its mouth and dragged her under water, officials said.

The girl was fishing in the river with her father and brother in East Nusatenggara province when the reptile suddenly sprang up from the water and pulled her in, the Jakarta Post reported Saturday. She is presumed to be dead.

“Juraida was seized when she was in about a half-meter of water at the river’s mouth,” Lembata Deputy Regent Viktor Mado Waton told the newspaper.

“Her father and brother could only watch helplessly,” he said.

A rescue team was later deployed but only found a dress and hair ribbon in the sound, the Post reported.

Local residents reported seeing several crocodiles near the area a few days before the incident, according to the newspaper.

Walton said a similar incident took place last year. The victim was not seen again.

      Sorry, dude, but that picture is of a croc. Indian, African or Aussie I don’t know, but it definitely isn’t an alligator. Narrow jaws, small snout, bigger teeth. Believe me – I used to wrestle alligators for a living.

      You used to wrestle crocs for a living? I’m impressed. On another note, why in hell do we not get get rid of these damn things in FL near populated areas? It‘s not like they don’t have thousands of square miles in the Everglades to inhabit. Same reason we allow pedophiles to live among our children …a wussified society that doesn’t have a lick of common sense or backbone.

      Ancient, you are wrong. Last year I had a 6 footer in by back yard pond. Took a week to get a licensed, state designated TRAPPER out to set bait and get him. Even he could not kill them on site, although he said once they are removed he can do away with him. No size limits that I’m aware of, and he agreed it was nuts to allow these things to roam around the neighborhoods. Every year several people are maimed or killed, and countless dogs and cats go ‘missing’.

      If it was up to me, it would be open season on any gator or dangerous snake not in a designated ‘swamp’ area, uninhabited by humans. Gators are no longer anywhere near ‘endangered’, and could be protected there.

      Yeah but he could be liable for criminal negligence. Letting your daughter near a river with Crocs in it is pretty negligent. Could be that he wouldn’t be convicted, because if they cant prove he knew it was a dangerous area they cant prove negligence. But crocs WERE seen in the river a few days before she got eaten.

      Luckily for him he is in India, and not the US. The laws there are far more lax than they are here.

    And this is one of the reasons why I’m no longer an environ-mentalist.

    It amazes me how successful they were at brainwashing literally the whole world into accepting that humans are inherently evil and nature is to be worshipped with a religious zeal.

    Now people have lost their common sense when it comes to basic safety.

    Back in the day, like 40-50 years ago, communities would organize massive efforts to rid dangerous species from their area.

    They’d kill all the poisonous snakes for example or wolves or bears or mountain lions or sharks so people in their community good enjoy nature freely without being killed.

    Now people would violently riot if anyone dared propose to remove all of the crocs from local rivers to keep the locals safe.

    Welp, you reap what you sow. If your daughter gets bitten in half for “encroaching” on the shark’s habitat when she goes surfing, it’s your own damn fault for accepting “Green” ideology.

      In reality, unlike their crok cousins, the American alligator is a very shy and docile animal. It is usually when people encroach on their habitat that they become familiar and lose their natural fear of humans. That’s not to say that I would recommend swimming with a 12 footer…. But, there are many more dangerous animals in our country than gators…

Yes, Florida allows permits to trap and kill them but the “rules” are daunting. Just can’t shoot them out of a tree. You have to capture them from the tree, pull them down and then kill them.

I understand that a baby who dies may not face the judgment even if they were not baptized, but the Bible is pretty clear, and if this girl was a Muslim, well, she isn’t going to Heaven. She may have even participated in harassing Christians in her neighborhood if she was a Muslim, or at least ignored when her brothers and others condemned Christians or that sort of thing. It is just sort of queer the way Westerner’s think they get some sort of cutesy brownie points by pretending they care for everyone, but it isn’t based on reality. Do we see the same sort of comments when Muslims blow up a Christian church in Africa or in Serbia? NO. Do we see similar sentiments when Muslims kill Jews in Israel? Well, sometimes, but usually there are just bland comments about politics and how the Jews have taken the innocent peaceful holy pious Muslim’s land.

Since you speak about religion – she was mostly likely not given the opportunity to accept the gospel of Jesus Christ. The wonderful part about God’s plan, is that those who were not given the option/opportunity to hear of his plan, WILL be given that opportunity after this life. God has missionaries working for him on the other side as we work for him on this side. YOU are not God, and YOU can not judge who will reach his kingdom and who will not.

    Alligators are just as bad.

    Here in Florida there have been numerous killings of both children and adults by alligators. They choke every waterway in overwhelming numbers, yet the fat politicians in Tallahassee won’t take them off th endangered species list.

    So, why would they refuse to do that?

    Because there are sick environmentalists who have been programmed to believe these predators must be encouraged to multiply in order to “protect the environment.” although they can’t really offer any substantiated facts to show what they say is true. North Carolina hunted alligators almost to extinction without one single impact to the balance of nature. In fact, their absence wasn’t even noticed.

    In addition to the very real danger of alligator attacks, we are now beset with an estimated 100,000 boa constrictors set loose in South Florida that are slowly migrating up the waterways from the Everglades to populated areas. The politicians have been intimidated by the environmentalists who pressure them to vote against laws banning the importation of these disgusting killers.

    Like everything else, if anything is to be set right we the people have to step in and do what has to be done. If any of these killers ever wander into my area they‘re history and to Hell with what the politicians want or don’t want.

    I would think more of “The Blaze” if they would take the high ground and not publish such stories. Unfortunate things like this happen all the time. Always have and always will. If I wanted to hear of such stories I’d pick up the New York Post. Shame on you for putting it on this web site. Shame on us, as a people, for being morbid enough to read it (I did not. I just put me two cents in).

      Agreed, it’s as if The Blaze is trying too hard to be like Drudge. I‘m surprised they didn’t comment on how the father and brother had no time to add some hot sauce before the Croc ate the little girl.

      Especially when the father never saw his daughter get eaten. They just found the clothes ripped up. but they suspect the croc did it.

    Terrible tragedy for for thie little girl and family. Unfortunately, this type of thing happens when wild animals are allowed to live in populated areas. We will start seeing more people here in the US being mauled by gators, bears, wolves and wild cats.

      That’s one viewpoint, or you could say people are populating all of wildlife. As sad as it is for the family, it is nature. We eat animals, and animals eat other animals, including people sometimes.

      Have you guys ever seen those nature scenes where the wilder beasts are getting a drink of water and a croc will come bolting out of the water straight up and grab the wilderbeast by the neck and pull it under? Gives me the willies.. Just think if you didn’t know crocs were in the river you were ..Guess they’mostly in Florida and Mississipi.. they say that they don‘t feed when it’s cold. .

      Is it wild animals who are ‘allowed’ to live in ‘populated’ areas, or people who choose to live in areas inhabited by wild animals?

    Was the crocodile African-American? If not, Blaze readers do not care. If it is black, then this is a tragedy and the end of America as we know it.

      If it were a black crocodile it would have jumped out on the bank and stolen the fisherman’s money before eating the child.
