Another crocodile is believed to have been involved in the incident, according to the BBC.
The two crocodiles, which measured 1.4 meters and 2.2 meters, were fatally shot on Monday, about a mile from where it was last seen, according to police.
It has not yet been officially confirmed that the remains are Darmody’s.
Darmody was last seen on April 29 when he was fishing with friends in Lakefield National Park.
One of the people he was fishing with, John Peiti, told the Cape York Weekly that Darmody was no longer in the water when he heard him calling for help.
A friend of Darmody’s, Jody Andrews, said: “It’s a real shock! He was so knowledgeable about crocodiles and very aware of the risks, always educating tourists.”
The crocodile attack took place in a part of Australia called “crocodile country”, where attacks by giant reptiles are common.
There are about 30,000 crocodiles in Queensland alone.
