The Irish Examiner finds Pumicestone's SON !

Saturday, March 12, 2016

" On the lookout for a real Crocodile Dundee character at last I find him on the Mary River.

Bearded weather beaten Sean Chisholm (Chizo) a wildlife ranger-guide at Wildman Wilderness Lodge is the real deal.

Demonstrating life jacket drill before our morning cruise he chuckles “not that you are going to need them in these crocodile infested waters”.

He narrowly missed being eaten by one earlier in the year.
I heard this huge clunk – a big croc was munching into my boat.
I wasn’t worried though, if your time is up, it’s up.
It’s our way of living out here in the Outback where you’re 170km away from a doctor if you get bitten by a mean snake
.”

Mick Dundee would have approved, because goes on Chizo to add, “But it’s the place we love and call home”.

How did you come to loose him in the first place? Did he wander off into the wilderness whilst you weren't looking?

Sean is married to the lovely Kim and they have produced two Grand-Pums .... now in their twenties.

He was never 'lost' (to us). I was just surprised that the Irish Examiner should stumble across him.

Does seem a long way for them to go for a story, still you can crow he is internationally famous not just domestically
