Crocodile concerns threaten Olympic rowing venue
The International Olympic Committee has raised safety concerns about crocodiles at the proposed Fitzroy River rowing venue in Rockhampton for the 2032 Brisbane Games. An IOC official questioned whether crocodiles would be fenced out during competition, warning that any athlete bite would end the Games. The Queensland government maintains the venue is safe, citing that student rowers use the river annually, while the World Rowing Federation conducts its assessment of the site.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
