(OT) Aussie Cantankerous Croc

Cantankerous croc bites off more than it can chew.

A cantankerous crocodile chased a man removing a storm-felled tree
from its pen before stealing his chainsaw, shattering a few teeth in
the process.

The aptly named Brutus, a 15-foot saltwater crocodile kept as an
attraction at the Corroboree Park Tavern in Australia's Northern
Territory, took offence at the noise of the chainsaw as the man cut
the fallen tree, tavern co-owner Linda Francis told Reuters.

"Freddy had climbed out on to the tree and was removing a limb when
the crocodile just erupted from his pool about 20m (60 ft) away and
used the tree to launch himself up at Fred and the chainsaw," Francis
said Friday. "Fred virtually gave him the chainsaw, shoved it at him.
It was still going and he took the chainsaw onto the ground and
proceeded to smash it and it stalled. The crocodile didn't cut
himself, just broke a few teeth."

Brutus then took the chainsaw into his pond and played with it for
about an hour, destroying it, before losing interest.
