Croc
The first crocodile to call Jesse’s sanctuary home, Kenny was relocated from the Kennedy River in Cape York after getting a little too comfortable sneaking into people’s campsites.
Croc
Removed from Aurukun after developing a taste for people’s dogs and posing a threat to locals, Campdog has quite the reputation. Despite his history, he’s a surprisingly shy fella who’s still learning to trust Jesse.

The newest addition to the sanctuary, Godzilla is an old friend Jesse has spent years working with. At 4.3 metres long, he’s a big personality and a very special addition to the family.
