Huge saltwater croc

Huge saltwater croc

The huge crocodile caught in Manilla, Philippines. It weighed 1075kg and was 21 ft long. It was seen to kill a water buffalo and might have killed two villagers too.
Initially, it destroyed 4 traps but was later caught using steel cables.

100 people were said to be needed to pull the croc from the creek to a clearing where a crane lifted it to a truck.

It is now safely placed in an enclosed cage and an ecotourism center will be built there
