Boy fed zoo reptiles to crocodile

SYDNEY, Australia - A 7-year-old boy broke into a popular Outback zoo, fed a string of animals to the resident crocodile and bashed several lizards to death with a rock, the zoo's director said Friday.

The 30-minute rampage, caught on the zoo's security camera, happened early Wednesday after the boy jumped a security fence at the Alice Springs Reptile Center in central Australia, said zoo director Rex Neindorf.

The child then went on a killing spree, bashing three lizards to death with a rock, including the zoo's beloved, 20-year-old goanna, which he then fed to "Terry," an 11-foot, 440-pound saltwater crocodile, said Neindorf.

I'm so ROTF at this comment - thanks - and you are so right - too bad he didn't.

I don't get it - 7 is one of the cutest ages kids can be - this kid is a serial killer in the making

Wow, how very sad, and even more so, the fact that we read more and more of these stories every day, as the time goes by people start getting desensitized and wont pay much attention or think is very serious the fact that a 7 YO is killing, today is animals, who knows what or who tomorrow...
Where were does parents? I hope this child gets help..

You are 100% correct, It starts out with the lives of animals and then progresses to other people when they get older. This story sickens me, and i too wish he had slipped

bettyeanne · 10-03-2008, 04:45 AM

I am stunned!! You're right ... where were his parents?? They should be prosecuted ... whatever the law will allow and this kid should be put in an institution!!

LunasMomma · 10-03-2008, 05:09 AM

That boy needs serious help and his parents too

How can you not know where your 7 year old child is?!?!?!

Reading stuff like this makes me wonder if serial killers are born not created. I can't see any normal person enjoying death ...let alone a child....it's got to be a defect in their brain chemistry.

Makes you wonder if therapy and medication would even work when someone is this mentally defective. Little boys just don't do stuff like this

his parents must be so proud.

This was my exact thought! Where are the parents?? since when is a 7y allowed to roam free? i wouldnt even let my 9y go to the bus stop by himself. (not that he lives with me now but that is a WHOLE different rant!)

Funny, we were reviewing Antisocial Personality Disorder, which the media calls people with this psychopaths, in class yesterday. Sadly, it's a PERSONALITY disorder, which means it's in your personality and there's not a whole lot that can be done. Though with a kid this young he'd probably be diagnosed with Conduct Disorder and then eventually APD as he got older.

But it's still terribly sad when you see instances of it in the news!

Edited to add: Since this is probably the beginning of what may be a personality disorder you can't place too much blame on the parents. People with personality disorders are extremely difficult to live with and deal with. While his parents should know where their 7 year old is, he is an exceptional 7 year old....

ARCHIE · 10-03-2008, 05:56 AM

His actions are those of a future serial killer!
Sorry to say, IMPO he needs to be put away for life.
No therapy in the world will correct the missing part of his brain.
What a very sad story for all those involved.
I have to say I feel so sorry for his parents unless he has been
abused in the past but I have read stories where parents
were loving and normal but produced a child like this.
Very sad. I wonder if he were adopted. I say this because I
had seen a Montel Williams show years ago regarding this very
thing and adopted children. Poor parents could get no help from
the adopting agencies years later and did not know how to deal
with the kids as they grew up. Scary show and so pathetic for
the parents.

Oh, by the way, psychopaths that are able to function highly (usually from pretending, that are hold a job and have people convinced that they're normal) are VERY VERY rare. While highly publicized how many cases of Jeffery Dahmbers or Ted Bundys do you hear about in a lifetime?

Good news: There's a lot more people that do horrible things but wouldn't go so far as to kill people then there are people that truly don't care or differentiate from right and wrong and will kill AND even fewer of those that no one notices. Think child sexual predators, how many of them look "normal" versus those that are really creepy and skeezy!

Edited to add: Ted Bundy always comes up in conversations like these around here, kind of interesting in a sad way to know that the person you're talking about did unimaginable things just a little ways away.

abaddon248 · 10-03-2008, 06:40 AM

that is disturbing. I cant believe that boy was roaming around with the thought of killing the animals. hey if i was 7 and wanted to break in to the zoo i would be petting the animals.. lol

shirlblack · 10-03-2008, 06:47 AM

7 years old and has probably been doing things like this for awhile. Sounds like his parents have already lost control of him. He's headed for a life of crime.
