A SALTWATER croc has been caught and relocated after it was spotted stalking dogs as their owners walked them along a popular Darwin beach.
Leanyer resident Marion Davey said she was walking her dog along Lee Point beach on Monday morning when she came across a cheeky 1.5m croc.

“Fortunately the ranger got to the crocodile on Lee Point beach before my optimistic dog did!” Ms Davey said.
