[hide]">SYDNEY (Reuters) - Retired Australian crocodile hunter Ray Turner saved a young girl from the jaws of a 3-meter crocodile when he jumped on top of the man-eating reptile and gouged its eyes, local media said on Tuesday. Hannah Thompson, 11, was swimming with other children in shallow water behind Turner's charter boat in Margaret Bay in tropical Queensland state on Monday when the crocodile grabbed her by the arm. Turner threw himself into the water the moment he heard screams and the shout "Crocodile!" from other passengers. "I landed fair on its back and I got a finger in its left eye -- I missed the right eye -- but he got a fright and let go," Turner said. "They will always let go when you go for an eye because it's their vulnerable point and their livelihood," he was quoted as saying by the Australian Associated Press. Turner said he hunted crocodiles in Papua New Guinea about 30 years ago. Officials said little Hannah, who received lacerations and puncture wounds on her arm, was in stable condition in hospital and owed her life to Turner's quick thinking. 退休猎手从鳄鱼口中救出一11岁女孩 悉尼:本周二悉尼当地媒体报道说,退休的澳大利亚鳄鱼猎手瑞-特纳跳到一条食人鳄头上猛抠其眼,将一个女孩儿从这条3米长的鳄鱼口中救了出来。事情发生在星期一,在地处热带的昆士兰省的玛格丽特海湾,11岁的哈娜·汤普森正和小伙伴们在一处浅水区游泳,她们就在特纳的游船后面,此时一只鳄鱼咬住了哈娜的胳膊,特纳一听到尖叫以及乘客们高喊"鳄鱼!"便纵身跳入水中。"我正好跳到它的背上,用手指抠进它的左眼--我没抠着右眼--可这已经让鳄鱼害怕了,它便松了口。"特纳说道,"如果你攻击它们的眼睛,它们就会松口,因为眼睛是它们最脆弱的地方,也是它们赖以生存的器官。"澳联社引用了特纳的话,特纳说30年前他在巴布亚新几内亚捕猎鳄鱼。 有关负责人说,小哈娜的胳膊有几处撕裂和小洞,目前在医院里伤势稳定,她将自己重新获得生命归功于特纳的及时反应。 [/hide]
