The day after, the dead reptile, which bore two hack wounds to the head, was brought to the ECPC, where biologists confirmed it was a juvenile saltwater crocodile .A Kawas resident said the crocodile was caught using a trap, then hacked twice to the head. In these human-crocodile encounters, both reptiles ended up lifeless, possibly borne by lack of proper understanding and fear of crocodiles by many people, Mejorada said.,” remarked Marvin Sarmiento, a biologist with the Crocodylus Porosus Philippines, Incorporated. CPPI is a group of six crocodile farms in the country advocating crocodile conservation.
In her September 22, 2014, Facebook post about the crocodile killed in Kawas, environment planner and university professor Carilyn Martin said Mabuwaya recommended the conduct of research and information-education campaigns among residents “to address speculations.” With their livelihood at stake, the group of fishers in Purok Minanga agreed and called a challenge by their village chief, Rogelio Solis, who dared them to band together and swim out to sea to capture the crocodile.
