Elvis the croc attacks lawn mower

SYDNEY (NBC) - Elvis, who could be the meanest crocodile in Australia, has done it again.

The huge salt water crocodile lunged from his pool at a reptile park and attacked a running lawn mower and drug it into his pool.

The mower's engine cut off when it hit the water, but the blades still took two of Elvis' teeth.

Elvis continued to guard the mower and wouldn't let his keepers get it out of the pool.

"The plan is to get that mower out firstly. I'll just try and drag it backwards. Lure the the croc around the other side, because he's dropped two monstrous teeth whilst he attacked the mower," crocodile handler Tim Faulkner said.  "And then we'll get those teeth out."

Elvis is 16 feet long and weighs a half ton.  He has a history of bad behavior.  He was captured in 2008 aboard fishing boats in Darwin, Australia.
