Sarawak has 25,000 crocodiles. Sarawak Croc Watch launched quietly in September 2024 at the Belawai Festival — a crowd-sourcing tool that lets users report sightings, flag hotspots, and push data directly to the Sarawak Forestry Corporation. Between 2023 and 2025, crocodiles attacked 33 people in Sarawak and killed 22 of them — a fatality rate of 67%. The state is now pushing the app through regional news outlets and Sarawak Forestry Corporation’s (SFC) official Facebook page — mobilising riverside communities to report what they see, and to report it fast. It is also, notably, an answer that puts the burden of surveillance on the communities most exposed to the danger.
