Children shocked after witnessing crocodile swallow teddy bear

A group of children were left in shock after a teddy bear was swallowed up by a crocodile in Adelaide River in Australia, Northern Territory on Tuesday.
They were on the Jumping Crocodile Cruise when a group of charity workers wanted a photo of their beloved teddy bear with a crocodile jumping out of the water to send back to the palliative-care children they look after in the United Kingdom.
Adelaide River crocodile feeder and skipper Susan Tribelhorn obliged, attaching the teddy bear to a pole that she uses to feed the crocs with a piece of meat on the end. In a cruel twist of fate, the teddy bear slipped off the pole and fell to its misery inside the jaws of Sarge, the croc.
A shape on the end of teddy’s foot was the last image children saw of the bear. Another tour group went out a few hours later, only to find Teddy had been regurgitated and was now in the jaws of Rusty. “It was funny,” Ms Tribelhorn said. “Everyone was in shock – especially the kids.”
