Fresh footage of a two-metre crocodile allegedly spotted north of Brisbane has emerged.

A ranger had reported the predator on the sand in front of Sarawak camping area at Inskip Point, near Rainbow Beach, on Monday.

Four more sightings have since been reported to the Department of the Environment, Tourism, Science and Innovation.

Video captured by camper Chris Kelly on Monday appeared to show the animal swimming off the beach near the barge landing.

Photos taken by a ranger showing what looked like an imprint of a crocodile’s body and claw marks in the sand were also published this week.

“We can reassure the public that this crocodile is considered to be a vagrant animal that has moved into the area from up north,” senior wildlife officer Joshua Morris previously said.

“This sighting does not mean the crocodile population is extending south.

“This crocodile has fled into the water at the sight of people and has so far avoided crowded beaches, but we still need people to be vigilant around the water.”
