They literally had the chance to make a ‘Man bites Croc’ headline, but somehow resisted.

This is the best summary I could come up with:
Northern Territory cattle producer Colin Deveraux knows he is lucky to be alive after being attacked by a 3.2-metre saltwater crocodile.
He stopped at a billabong after noticing fish swimming in the middle of the retreating waterway.
Mr Deveraux, who is aged in his mid-60s, said he tried kicking the crocodile in the ribs with his left foot and then tried biting the animal back.
Mr Deveraux said he got a towel and some rope to strap up his leg and stop the bleeding.
His brother then drove him 130 kilometres to hospital where Mr Deveraux has been receiving treatment for his wound ever since.
He received a skin graft earlier this month and said he could feel his toes, and doctors were hopeful he could walk out of hospital this week.

You really should have included the crucial bit about how he bit the croc on it’s eyelid, which it really didn’t like. I know you are not a very smart bot, do I’ll forgive you.
