- Crocodiles have been spotted swimming through main streets as floodwaters hit Far North Queensland.
Footage captured a crocodile catcher in action after locals reported sightings of the animal exploring the town of Ingham.
Other wildlife rescues have been underway including wallabies and livestock.
The flooding comes after the remnants of Tropical Cyclone Jasper brought months’ worth of rain in just a few hours.
The flooding has left around 14,000 homes and businesses without power.
YES!! Yipeee yayy, *DREAMS* DO Come TRUE@ Well- done, my GOD LORD🙏🙏
this NEWS made my Dayy!!
Guess it's boring sitting naked in your closet
Nothing stops Queenslanders from getting to the pub… NOTHING!! 😅
They must be like the south east us. Just a bunch of rednecks that do for themselves…
Bunch of alcoholics
@@user-om1xr4oi9j just don’t mess with the emu
Nice to see people saving the animals 🐊🐿️🦘🦘
YES!!! 🥰🥰😘
As a Singaporean-chinese, i will NEVER Say this : "Yipeee, yayyy" !! Make DE'M Suffered, my Lord🙏🙏🤝
this NEWS brings my Dayyy ^^
~ as a Singaporean- chinese, speaking!
Why

What are you talking about?
Fellow Queenslanders, you are brave and we pray for you!❤
Amen 🙏♥️🙏
Well- DESERVED👍👍
~ my Days😎🌻🌄 just gone better!
Queensland is getting its deluges of wet weather like it used to 50 years ago. What a lot of people dont understand is that 50 years later, there are 10 x more people living in queensland and Australia meaning more people building in areas once considered marginal to weather conditions and more statistics showing people in distress.
Same in the American West with wildfires. Huge numbers of homes in areas 50 years ago that were just forests.
This is what happens when you don’t listen to locals and Aboriginal peoples who know where not to build and live. Australia is a migratory country which means during certain seasons you leave your living area and move to higher ground and vice versa. But people aren’t listening they think they can stay one place year round.
Most places flooded are over 50 years old and have never been flooded before!
Australians reaction to crocodiles roaming the streets? Let's go to the pub.
Oh Dear. Sky News at it again......this was ONE croc and it was not in the Main Street. I don't know why things have to be "Dramatized" to this level. Queenslanders know what to expect.......
If there's even one, you can bet there's more.
Also, other news outlets are reporting the same thing. Are you going to go call them out or is it just because you don't like Sky?
@@Hodaris_Darlin I really don't care what other outlets are reporting. I saw this on 9News. So, if it's an argument you're looking for, look elsewhere, I don't have the time......
OH PLEASE!!
*WHO Caress*
NO ONE. Seriously, *NO ONE* !!
Crocodiles are cleaning up the flooded streets of Queensland. Good job
Just by the host referring to a tinny as a dinghy just goes to show how out of touch the people in the media and city dwellers in general are
always a tinny.
And how he pronounced euramo 😂
And dinGy not even dingy lol
Just realised he said euraama 🤣
Imagine if you had a electric car wake up Australia
*an electric NOT a electric. Try learning basic grammar, imagine that.
Petrol car wouldn't be of much use either Einstein
The Croc's are looking for Labor MP's!
Another skynews watching dickhead.
The Croc's are the Labor MP's!
@@terrykemble-yi2ncI mean, you're here too.
@@Hodaris_Darlin did l upset you, so sorry, but hey it's just my opinion.
Wait what???? Doesn't every australian have a crocodile as a pet???
Steven Miles is a very natural speaker, isn't he?
He gives me Joe Biden vibes
He sounds like AI.
Also, someone should tell him that not every word needs a comma when speaking
Yep 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🍻🇦🇺
Far North Queensland, home of rainforest’s - Exactly, rainforests! That’s why rainforests are there, RAIN, back to the way it use to be ! Just because all the southerners have moved there doesn’t mean it’s knew.
*Scenery and floodwaters looks like a South Florida hurricane/cyclone, except even worse. Mostly alligators here, but there's also a species of native crocodile. Anyway, lots of fun for one and all.*
25 years ago I bought a block of land to live on. I made sure it had a good view and it has a great one. It is also on the top of a hill. Its not on a flood plain so there's nothing for anybody to complain about. I don't have crocs to worry about. I have made friends with the tiger snakes so they aren't a problem either.
Well done you genius. Not sure there are enough hills for everyone in the world to live on one but you carry on pretending that the tiger snakes are your friends and you’ll be up for a Darwin Award very soon.
Lucky they don't have land slides...... Oh wait they do .
Even when Australia gets hit with the worst of it, it's still T-shirt weather. I'm so jealous.
‘Like never before’ seriously??? 🤦🏼♀️
They look pretty chill .. those gators..
Crocodiles are not roaming the streets! FFS! How’s about the article headline reads “FNQ community rally together to help SES save people’s lives”
Australia is just Florida on the other side of the planet
Wow fascinating, anything else?
Well, North Queensland & Florida are both tropical regions.
@@kristinburton4953 yeah. Sure do. Historically women have not been allowed to vote in nearly every civilization in history. In fact….americans let ex slaves vote before white women. For a good reason too….and you are a perfect example of why.
@@kristinburton4953 you’re not an introvert or depressed and you certainly aren’t high functioning….y0ure an arseh0le and n0 0ne l1kes y0u or your sarcasm. You’re feeling that.
Accept Australia is about the same size as the lower 48 states and the tropics if Australia are vast and a lot empty
The weather is horrifically hot not beautiful pleasant weather
so you live near a river ,and now you want help, and your insured how did that happen? they've never seen this ? well history documented says its all happened before ,imagine that.
This isn't a case of living by a river. This is a huge weather event. Try thinking.
and they will all just move back in and hope its another 100 years or will they to sell up to the next sucker ,cheap land with water views @@weirdshibainu
. No power for 70 hours. Beach destroyed. Landslide on my street. Water forced under the sliding doors by wind flooding the bedroom and lounge. Worked with towels for nine hours wringing up into buckets. Roads collapsed. Rivers created. No phone or internet. Power on now.
Hunga Tunga plus El Niño? Pretty devastating. I hope you get a break, it’s still raining. 😢
The driest place on earth is now the wettest. I bet they would have liked this during wildfires. I hope everyone finds higher ground down under, this day.
They don't get bushfires there it's in far north tropical Queensland where the rainforests are. It's the monsoon season right now
It’s never dry in a rainforest
Really we just had really bad fires in the Tablelands a couple of months ago. People had to evacuate for that too @@atocombabaya
We do get bush fires up here, not everywhere is rainforest
Dang. That will kill the coral reseeding trial, won't it?
I hope and pray for there safety
What a croc!!! Wait till they start a go fund me page. I am not giving a cent to the Republic of Queensland!!!
Remember everyone we have to respect all crocodiles since they are descendants of the Crock Man reincarnation of the one in the ocean which doesn't want the gas pipeline, and we need to show great respect to a people who are blocking every glimmer of hope for cheaper gas prices with ridiculous nonsense!
Tin foil needed 😂
Looks terrible. How much of a problem do these crocodiles pose roaming about the flood water?
Every third world nation I had the opportunity to live and reside in, when emergencies occur, the military are the first to always provide assistance to help the locals. Sure emergency services are there but it's the military with all the essentials that get in and help the areas affected. Why does such developed nations rely on SES services that are heavily underfunded, to provide such emergency support? It makes absolutely no friggin sense why.
When Townsville was flooded in 2019, they sent in the army (of course we are a garrison city).
It has to get really bad for the army, and then they are just there for clean up too.
It's free for the government to deploy SES, a purely voluntary organisation. Army not so much.
Because Australia is comically useless.
@erin6579 SES has heaps of funding. Look at how many senior management roles the Queensland SES has on hand throughout the year. Its not voluntary workers but people on contracts which amount to 100's of thousands of dollars in payment. That huge SES site near Cherside is not run by volunteers.
@@Hodaris_Darlindidn't need to "send in the army" as you said ya a garrison city bit different further north. Unfortunately living up here this shit happens we prepare for everything we we've been through before then nature throws a bigarse curve ball at us and we try to adapt. Many people outside of cairns got fckall left right before Xmas we just get through best we can and help the fella down the rd best we can 🍻🍻🇦🇺
Good we didn't booked flights to Brisbane Gold Coast for Christmas vacation adventures from October 2023 for December Christmas holidays
We wanted to go to Northern Queensland saraga from December 22nd to December 31st
Maybe next year saraga
Now you'll have to deal with insurance companies, food,rates,petrol,electricity, vehicle,water price hikes..
HAARP
What is a Jasper in Australia. Here we call them some times 'Yellow Jackets' But primarily they are wasps. A wild veriety of flying creature with a sting. I just ask as I wonder who on earth would call a Cyclon Cyclone 'Jasper'. Maybe a Jasper is completely different in Australia. My recommendation is not to call them after wild creatures or beasts. So do not call them Cyclone Croccy, or Python, Black Widow, or any of the other dangerouse or poisonouse creatures. To me it seems like asking for trouble. Sowing the seeds of disaster. Sowing the whirlwind but sowing with bad, dangerouse or poisonouse seeds. Just my opinion.
he kissed that wallapy
Where is Elmer Fudd ? wine tasting !!!!
Its been a lot worse than that before, you couldnt even see the rooftops 15 yrs ago!
Not in Cairns and Port Douglas it hasn't
Makes a great track mat if you get bogged in the river .
I have two rules in life. I don't deal with salty crocs. Second rule I reinforce the first rule. I have nothing against them except their big sharp teeth.
If only Australia had a volunteer organization like the Cajun Navy in United States.
I figure they do.
@longsleevethong1457 hopefully so, when I visited there by Naval ship in 92, a local said my relatives that went there may have been horsethieves in Ireland.
We have the SES. Usually the army gets sent in eventually.
@@Hodaris_Darlin the Cajun navy is not government. It’s just local people helping each other. It’s rednecks.
😳
What a sad mess.
It’s my dream to swim with dolphins and crocs 🐬 🐊 🏊♂️
If you're drowning or being attacked by a shark, dolphins will save your life. They are amazing, sweet, intelligent, and strong. Have you ever seen a fight between a shark and a dolphin 🐬?
Spoiler Alert: The dolphin always wins 🏆!
Please do, the planet's full. ~Eyeroll~
@@BettyWhite2171lol…who told you that??? I’ve seen sharks eat dolphins lol. Stop with all that bs lol
@@longsleevethong1457 Look up dolphin fights shark. The look up why they always win.
The only time a dolphin would lose is if it gets jumped by a few. But one on one, bet on the dolphin 🐬!
Yet more drivel. A girl was swimming with dolphins here in the swan river just last year, she was attacked and killed by a shark.
please save the wild life
Zoom earth radar to see the obvious weather modification
This is the biggest Queensland moment of all time.
Hardly.
Very Australia…
We used to have this guy called Crocodile Dundee, sadly he’s mostly retired these days.
Yawn
I hope that you did not forget their animal behind because that’s cruelty to animals and animals is a family member. They should be accepted anywhere they go. This is a crisis. If you don’t think it’s a crisis for an animal you’re wrong you should not own an animal, if you do not take it with you.
Yes, take your crocodile with you.
Dispatch them! O h I forgot you gave that right away!
Never never never before. Haha
Please learn how to pronounce Euramo
U wish
Global boiling
These animals are prehistoric. If you don't go into their home you won't get hurt. This here is them being displaced from their home, just like humans. Understand that they are just trying to survive like you are. No need to kill them. Just stay away from them and their water.
What are you dribbling about?
@@wayneh71She's talking about crocodiles.
@@wayneh71 Yo mama.
Nobody is hurting the crocs, the ones swimming down main st will get relocated and it’s pretty hard to stay away from their water when it’s flowing through your living room, dullard.
And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth. Revelation 6:8

Cricky!! It’s a croc on my lawn!! 🐊
Had a fall evacuating belongings to higher ground on Saturday afternoon, injured myself pretty badly,wasn't able to be evacuated because rescue choppers were grounded. Anyway on Tuesday I finally was able to drive to hospital, wrist was fractured in 3 places, I'd had nothing but Panadol for the pain for over 48 hours. Was told my case was a priority and I'd be seen at the Cairns hospital fracture clinic "as a priority." Well it's Thursday night now and when I called today I was told they haven't triaged my referral. It'll be next week before they see me now, and the bone will have to be broken again to set it straight. Yeah. Priority my ass. Did I mention I'm just a worthless disabled pensioner so it's ok for the government to neglect me and leave me suffering?
Did I also mention I might forget to slow down near private school pedestrian crossings from now on, to share the "love"
Prabhupada the founder acharya always says, the most abominable thing is cow killing. This one sinful activity is more than enough to bring all disasters in life.
