“Dad brought home a huge lump of the tail and we tried it and it was really tough … just like chewing on white rubber”

Meet Sweetheart, the Territory’s most infamous crocodile and find out how he ended up on the dinner table of a young taxidermist-to-be. Learn about the lengths his father went to to preserve the legendary giant reptile, and travel to a Top End billabong to learn about crocodile conservation. 

This is The Collection, a podcast that blends science and storytelling to showcase fascinating objects from the Museum and Art Gallery of the Northern Territory.   

In this episode hear from MAGNT’s Curator of Territory History Jared Archibald, crocodile specialist Adam Britton, and Northern Territory Outback Wrangler Matt Wright.

The Collection is produced by StoryProjects with production by Cinnamon Nippard and Lori Uden, music composition by James Mangohig and mixing by Hamish Robertson. Johanna Bell is the Executive Producer.

Thanks to Adam Britton, Glaneur de Son, InspectorJ, Matt Wright, the Northern Territory Government, and Tourism NT, for sharing their recordings with us.

Season One was created on Larrakia land in the tropical Top End of Australia’s Northern Territory with funding from National Science Week NT.
