Authorities are working to confirm if two more crocodile sightings off Queensland's south coast are legitimate, as they stray hundreds of kilometres away from their natural territory. 9News
Straddie Adventures owner Mark Jones claimed he spotted the three-metre crocodile at about 7.30am on Wednesday at Myora Springs while taking a family of nine customers out for a kayak.
"Then I thought to myself, 'That's not actually a log'. I didn't say anything, but one of the other people in the tour saw it as well. "Crocodile warning signs will be installed at boat ramps while the investigation is underway," DES said. Croc country typically begins at the Boyne River south of Gladstone, extending up the east coast and across Far North Queensland.
