World’s Largest Crocodile Captured

September 6, 2011


The world’s largest crocodile was captured in the Philippines, weighing in at one ton and measuring 21 feet long.

That’s one big crocodile!

According to the Daily Mail, the crocodile had been tormenting villagers in Agusan and even killed several fisherman over the past 20 years.

“We were very nervous about tackling this beast but it was our duty to deal with it because it was a threat to many villagers and their farm animals,” said the local mayor, Mr Edwin Elorde.

“When I finally saw it after its capture I couldn’t believe my eyes.”

“It was big enough to swallow three men all at once.”

Animal activists will be very happy to know that this beast was not killed, but was in fact transported to a confined area where it will be on display at a new eco-tourisim part that will be opened up in the near future.
