KOTA KINABALU: The Sabah Wildlife Department is hard-pressed to manage human-crocodile conflict as it is overstretched, says its director Augustine Tuuga .
There are only six teams available to cover all 73,631sq km of Sabah, he said when contacted on Monday .He said a task force, headed by the Sabah Home Affairs and Research Office under the Chief Minister’s Department, had been formed to oversee the mitigation of human-crocodile conflict.However, he said, the speed of operations remains slow even with"extra hands" from district offices, the police, Fire and Rescue Department and the Malaysia Civil Defence Force.
Between Jan 4 and May 29, a total of 77 operations were conducted, resulting in the capture and shooting of 109 crocodiles. On Sunday , a nine-year-old boy was the latest victim of a reptile attack at a river in Kampung Lembaga Batu 8, along Datuk Tay Road in Sandakan.He was swimming at about noon when the crocodile attacked, and his body was found three hours later some 500m from where he was last seen.
