Can crocodiles and canoeists coexist at Australia’s 2032 Olympic Games?

The article discusses the potential coexistence of crocodiles and canoeists in the Fitzroy River in Queensland, Australia, which is set to host the 2032 Olympic Games. The river has seen an increasing presence of the world's largest living reptile, the crocodile, which has some concerned about the safety of athletes during the games. While some believe the athletes should not worry, others warn against "running the gauntlet" of crocodiles. The article features the perspective of Andrew Miller, the president of a Rockhampton canoe club, who is providing a crash course on using a V8 ocean ski to a first-time paddler, as he explains why the K1 craft, used by the world's best canoe sprinters, may not be suitable for the river due to the presence of crocodiles.
