JAKARTA - Residents of Kampung Bangun Sari, Tanjungpinang Timur District, Tanjungpinang City, Riau Islands Province, managed to catch a crocodile measuring about 2.5 meters. Crocodiles are caught by entangling them with ropes.
The head of RT 01 / RW 10 Rumono said that these large reptile animals that live in the water often eat fish from local residents' cages.
"Crocodiles are thought to have come from a tributary of the Toca River, which is not far from residential areas," said Rumono as quoted by Antara, Thursday, December 17.
Rumono asked the local government to immediately return the crocodile to its natural habitat. "If possible, the Regional Disaster Management Agency (BPBD) will take over and throw the animal away," he said.
Wahidin, the owner of catfish and catfish cages, admitted that he had lost tens of millions of rupiah because his cultivated fish were often eaten by crocodiles.
He hopes that the Tanjungpinang City Government can help reduce the losses he has experienced with a number of other fish cultivation cage owners.
"We also asked the municipal government to fence off the Toca River tributaries so that the crocodiles could not leave the area," said Wahidin.
