Eardley CROCODILE farm

I was dejected when I realised the crocodile farm was not in North Staffs to help solve the anti-social behaviour problem. From the UK Financial times of 10 November 1981. The Eardley crocodile farm is 20 miles south of Darwin in the Northern territories of Australia. Founder and part owner Malcolm Eardley was partly funded by the Northern Territory Development Commission.
He is working an apparent demand for the meat, tasting akin to prawn. There are also tanneries in Germany, Italy and France after the hides. One of Malcolm's earlier problems reqiured him to toothbrush the young crocs teeth. Asian demand for specific croc bodyparts that have high aphrodisiac properties will not be met until all the local boys have been satisfied.
I believe any proven UK relatives will be offered a working farm holiday.

I'm sure there are people out there who can supply further information about the business and Malcolm's ancestry and relatives.
