Confronting images have emerged of two crocodiles brutally maimed and killed in Far North Queensland, after a $10,000 reward was posted for information on the crimes.

The first death was discovered at Cow Bay in April, when a male crocodile was found beheaded.

Experts believe the crocodile was most likely killed by a human, potentially with a machete or a power tool.

Lizzie’s body showed signs she had been targeted and deliberately killed.
