Crocodiles are one of the most dangerous animals in the world . In the countryside of northern Australia , these animals can cause very serious problems , They often attack and eat farmer's cows . Sometimes , they even kill people . Local people deal with this problem by killing the crocodiles . However , some workers have a better solution . They move the crocodiles to parts of the countryside where there are no people . This way , both the crocodiles and the people are safe .
This way not an easy job . To capture the crocodiles , workers set traps . When they catch a crocodile , they have to put rope around its mouth , and move the crocodile into a cage .After that , they connect the cage to a helicopter . Finally , the helicopter files the crocodile to a more distant area . They think this is better than killing the crocodiles .
This kind of work saves many crocodiles every year . However , this is a very dangerous job . Workers have to get in the water and use their hands to move the crocodiles . Some crocodiles try to attack them . These people had better be careful ; the biggest crocodiles are more than five meters long , and weigh more than 400 kilograms .
