2032 Olympics: Crocodiles at the Stadium
The 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games hosting project in Brisbane, Australia, is considering selecting the Fitzroy River in Rochampton as the venue for rowing and canoeing events, despite concerns about roughly 500 crocodiles in the area. Technical assessments have shown that the river could provide suitable and stable conditions for the competitions, taking into account factors such as water depth, current movement, and flood risk. However, the final approval of the site requires further review of the infrastructure and sustainability aspects. Crocodiles pose a major concern due to their nature and the safety of athletes, but sports experts have confirmed that the main challenges relate to the river’s physical characteristics and the potential dangers they present to race proceedings, as well as infrastructure issues after the Games conclude — especially since the area is remote, located about 600 kilometers from Brisbane.
