ALso in ABC News for AUstralia:

"Police are looking for 30 crocodiles believed to have been stolen from a crocodile farm near Darwin.

Some of the saltwater crocodiles, which were taken from the Jenamba Crocodile Farm at Fogg Dam, are up to one metre long.

Farm manager Manual Cabrall says an audit yesterday revealed about 30 of the animals, which are used for skin and meat, to be missing.

He thinks they may have been taken to southern states, where he says live crocodiles can fetch up to $1000 each on the black market."
