Australian river with crocodiles to host 2032 Olympics
Fitzroy River in Queensland, Australia, known for being home to around 500 crocodiles, has received official approval to host rowing, Paralympic rowing, and sprint canoe competitions during the Brisbane 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games. The approval came after an independent technical assessment showed that the river successfully passed safety tests, despite concerns related to its strong currents, flooding, and sediment levels that might require ongoing maintenance. The venue will host international sporting events, and choosing the river is considered a unique decision given its nature, which includes crocodiles and challenging environmental conditions.
