The Indonesian archipelago is the home of 14 types of crocodiles, with a large population of extremely large and violent estuarine crocodiles that bloom in the climate of the region.
Conservationists are of the opinion that crocodiles are driven further inland, closer to villages, due to overfishing that reduces the natural food supply of the crocodiles, combined with loss of habitats due to the development of coastal areas to farms.
Wide -grained tin winning has also ensured that villagers carry the natural habitats of the crocodiles and push the beings closer to people's houses.
With the local population in the developing country that still uses rivers for bathing and primitive fishing, the deadly combination of factors has led to rising numbers of crocodile attacks.
