A US tourist with a dark sense of humour has been slammed after he terrorised fellow international visitors at a popular wildlife park just days after he arrived in Australia for a four-week holiday.
Alex Clark, 26, spent a night in custody after he poked a female tourist in the ribs with a knife handle as a joke and jokingly told another he would turn the man into 'street pork buns' while staying at Walkabout Wildlife Park on the NSW Central Coast last week.
He appeared at Gosford Local Court via audio-visual link where he pleaded guilty to two counts of stalk or intimidate intending to cause fear of physical harm, common assault and armed with intent to commit indictable offence.
Clark and the two victims from Germany and Canada were all guests staying at the Calga tourist attraction while undertaking voluntary work, agreed facts tendered to the court stated.
The court heard Clark was a welder from Utah who arrived in Australia on August 7.
