Crocodiles killed nine people and hurt eleven others across Zimbabwe during the last two months, according to reports from ZimParks. These dangerous animals also attacked farm animals, killing 44 cows and 60 goats. Officials counted 49 separate times when crocs came into contact with humans during this short period.

On Wednesday, Mr. Tinashe Farawo from ZimParks warned everyone about staying safe near lakes and rivers. He said the rainy season makes water spots extra risky for both people and animals. Parents need to watch kids closely when they go near water, and anyone taking care of farm animals should keep them away from places where crocodiles might hide.

ZimParks wants communities to build simple barriers at spots where locals fish, swim, or wash clothes. These safety steps can save lives by keeping people apart from hungry Crocs. The wildlife agency tries hard to protect both animals and humans, working closely with town officials and wildlife groups to teach safety rules and croc habits.

The problem keeps growing across the country. Between 2019 and 2023, wild animals killed around 300 Zimbabweans. These latest crocodile attacks show how important it is for everyone to learn about dangers near water and take steps to stay safe. Protecting farms and families requires everyday awareness about where these reptiles live and hunt.
