Animal rights groups are calling for Channel 4 to reconsider showing scenes shot for The Island with Bear Grylls, in which Made in Chelsea star Ollie Locke allegedly stabbed a crocodile to death.

The survival show, which will see whether celebrities can survive on a remote island without mod cons for two weeks, is due to air in October as part of Stand Up To Cancer.

Animal rights campaigners are not happy with Ollie apparently killing a crocodile on the show, with one claiming the reality TV star wouldn’t know how to do it ‘humanely’.

Alan Knight from International Animal Rescue told The Sun: “I feel it is totally unacceptable to kill or abuse animals for entertainment.”

He went on to claim that the crocodile would have ‘suffered unnecessarily’ as Ollie would not have known how to kill the animal ‘humanely’, before asking Channel 4 to ‘reconsider’ airing the episode.

The channel have since responded, telling Digital Spy in a statement: “The premise of the series, in aid of Stand Up to Cancer, is to see if when stripped of all the conveniences of modern life, celebrities have what it takes to survive and feeding themselves is a fundamental part of this.

“Those on the island all received training on how to kill animals humanely and this was utilised properly in each instance.”

25 Reality TV Fights That Will Never Stop Giving Us Life

What does Gary Beadle do when a girl tells him she loves him? Tries to hook up with someone else right in front of them, obviously! Oh Charlotte and Gaz, it was never simple, was it?

A TOWIE episode where there's no drink throwing involved isn't an episode worth having, and Lucy Meck drenching Mario with red wine at an all white dress code party was the best burn ever.

Speaking of drink throwing, when MIC's Spencer turned on his best boi Jamie over some silly lady troubles, we knew there was trouble in bromanctic paradise.

How could we forget our favourite Kardashians? These lot fight like only sisters can, like the time Kim and Khloe argued over who was more famous. Awks.

4 of 25
A fight on St Patrick's Day? What a bloody cliche. Still, this huge bust-up between TOWIE's Diags and Tommy Mallett over their respective girlfriends was pretty epic.

Woops, Geordie newbie Chloe really got a taste of Psycho Charlotte in the latest series of the show. But hey, she definitely knew how to defend herself.

Remember when Millie Mackintosh's then-boyfriend Professor Green got into it with MIC's Victoria on Twitter and she called him a 'wannabe Eminem'? THOSE WERE THE DAYS, MAN.

TOWIE's Lucy Mecklenburgh and Jess Wright may look all sweet and innocent, but back in 2013 they were suspended from filming after a physical fight with co-star Jasmin Walia broke out on-set.

Former BFFs Lucy Watson and Stephanie Pratt are now enemies thanks to a boy. Falling out over Steph's boyfriend Josh, the pair are no longer speaking and merely sub-tweeting shady things via Twitter. Sadface.

In a recent KUWTK preview, Kim appeared to hit out at sister Kendall, saying, "I’m not buying her a pair of shoes, I bought her a f**king career” - she was actually talking about Kourtney. Still quite mean, Kimmy.

Charlotte Crosby dropped a total bombshell on us last month when she claimed that Gaz was still sleeping with her while he was dating new girlfriend Lillie Lexie. Lillie was quick to deny the rumours, & now the whole thing's quite awkward for everyone.

TOWIE couple Chloe Sims and Elliott Wright seemed to be on then off more than your average light switch, but when the two had a very public fight after the NTAs this year (with him allegedly smashing her phone in the process) things went downhill fast.

12 of 25
MIC's Victoria can be seriously nasty when she wants to be, and it's safe to say she ruined the festive mood at a Christmas party in 2013 by calling co-star Cheska a 'f**king fat turkey'. Nice.

Nothing like a three-way argument to really get the night going. Scotty T, Gaz, Aaron all went for each other during a fight over Marnie. Jealousy isn't cute, guys.

14 of 25
Probably the funniest/most ridiculous feud in the whole of Keeping Up With The Kardashians was this email Kim sent to Khloe after she woke her up one morning. Remind us never to make the same mistake.

15 of 25
Gaz never really came across as the jealous type until Marnie entered the picture. Remember when they fought about how she clearly fancied Aaron? Well, he wasn't wrong, was he?

16 of 25
This heated argument between Charlotte and Kyle was so screechy we think only dogs could hear it at times, but major props for Char for (trying to) stick up for her BFF Holly. Didn't quite go to plan, though.

"Your nose ring looks really weird", aka the best one-liner in television history. Sorry Phoebe, but Lucy won this particular MIC fight for that insult alone.

Judge Geordie star Vicky Pattison is never afraid of a fight, not even with Internet trolls. After getting hateful messages saying all her pictures were photoshopped, Vicks quickly told them to 'f**k off'. Go on, pet.

From bitchy cat-fights to an actual, real life boxing match between TOWIE's Lewis Bloor and Elliott Wright. Any excuse for them to get their tops off, eh?

Barely 5 minutes goes by without a Geordie Shore fight breaking out, but in Australia things got crazy when James punched Gaz in a row over Vicky.

Pro Green really wasn't a fan of the Made In Chelsea lot (besides his wife, obviously). At a private gig in Chelsea last year, the rapper labelled Spencer Matthews a 'big c-word', so not ideal, really.

22 of 25
Sadly, Charlotte and Vicky's friendship hasn't all been smooth sailing lately. After allegedly telling tabloids that Charlotte was 'copying' her career by releasing her own fitness DVD, Char said that she was 'disappointed' in her former co-star. Oh guys!

Back in 2008, Kim and Kourtney came to blows over Kim buying a Bentley, which ended with Kimmy telling her sister: "You're a jealous psycho b*tch".

Oh, and that time MIC's Lucy and Louise had it out over Spencer via the medium of Twitter. The phrase 'sloppy seconds' was used. Shots were fired. Good times.
