A huge crocodile caught in our country!

hello cutie, You want to see this huge real monster in person? I want to see it also...so let's go I saw this news in yahoo last night and was fascinated how big it is. I even took the meter stick and see how large and long it is (so scary) I wonder where is his wife,kids,parents and other relatives have a good day jaiho®

Ya i saw it on the news this morning. He's so huge! And everytime they attempt to tie his mouth he suddenly open it. They find it so hard to tie his mouth. We even made a joke that "bangis" was caught already. hehehehehe

Really very scary news. In fact, this is my first time heard that your country have such a huge crocodile being caught by the locals. In my country, almost every rivers have crocodiles. The most famous crocodile in history in my country is the "Bujang Senang". It is said had killed many peoples in my country. That's why, i am very scared to live near to river area, for fear meeting the crocodile...

Hello mtrguanlao, Not really that big compare to other countries but it's rare that we see large crocodiles like that. it's really hard to believe that in the interview of GMA there wasn't a reported incident of people gotten killed? or did I just missed a news on that. this is a dangerous one and can eat and swallow any Filipino as a whole.

I hope that the biggest crocodile that they caught is friendly like Bangis hehe.

Wow! That is a monster, all right. I'm sure I have read of similar incidents here, but I can't remember them. What is fresh in my mind tonight is that a man was arrested for biting another man's pet python. Can you believe that? They don't know why the man bit the snake, but the snake had to have surgery to recover. It's amazing what some people will do.

Hi mtr, I worried about the disappeared fisherman. Finally it caught and it is really a great relief to the people who scared by the same. There were news about wild elephants who came from the forests killed many people in south part of India. I also heard news about Leopard attacked people and pet animals in some places. I think all happened due to deforestation, people are destroying the forests for their selfishness and wild animals can’t live peaceful life in their respective places so they are forced to come out and attack people.

Back in 2008, I was living in Mackay in Central Queensland...we has major flooding in the wet season which brought a couple of crocs into town...1 wasn't caught until about 6 months after the floods & was living in the goose ponds near residential area in town!

i heard it in the news. and they said, the crocodile even ate other big animals, not only a water buffalo. now it can be told that "bangis" is not only a pure imagination of tv5 and carlo caparas.

I have seen a lot in Discovery channel and in National Geographic. They have episodes where they feature crocs..:) Mostly those near the amazon as well as in the Nile.

Hi there! Yea, it was reported in my country's newspaper too! I was shocked to see such a gigantic crocodile and it's the first time that I see it! Wow such a giant, it's no wonder it can eat up anything! Of course I pity the fisherman, who was a star in the ecotourism industry right? But this giant, it's a menace to humans, especially kids. Wish they could put it into a zoo.

hi mtr, Well Agusan Marsh is one natural habitat for them As time pass people are claiming this natural habitat of them But of course we both can't blame them they just want to live It sad that it comes to the point this animals need to kill to survive and people need to kill them to be safe happy mylotting

I saw this on the news...YIKES!!! That is something one expects to see in a horror movie, but not in real life...that is spooky, spooky...

Yeah I heard the news about that. The people were hunting the huge reptile for 3 weeks. It's 21 feet long and weighting 600kg (1320 lbs) probably the world's largest crocodile caught alive! It's currently a tourist attraction in Butuan.

Hi! I've seen this in yahoo news! My golly, it was really big! Twenty feet! Four times my height and 22 times my weight! That's really scary. And it said in the news that it had ate a child before. I can imagine how the villagers lived in fear because of this killer croc. And I can also imagine their happiness when it was caught. That crocodile can even eat me! I can fit perfectly in its mouth! It was good thing that it was caught. But they said there are other killer crocodiles there. I wouldn't want to live in that kind of place. The news also said that the crocodile will become the new "star" of a planned eco-park. Even if the crocodile is dangerous, I hope when they put it in a cage or something, they will imitate exactly the habitat of the crocodile and not just put it in a steel cage or something.

It is indeed big compared to other crocodile species here in Philippines. I just hope and pray that the animal didn't hurt anyone.

Hi Mtr When you visit the croc... just be sure that you dont feed it... The only incident I remember is when I was at the Military Academy training them on Computers, that the village by the sea had one shark about 12 feet that somehow got into the local sea. The people killed it and it was sold out in the market. The Army came to know about it the next day and they went out to give a training to the people so that they will not kill such things the next time and inform the army who would take care and ensure the animals are sent back to where they came from.

Hello my dear sweet friend! We have had incidents such as these where a giant bear has attacked and bitten the trainer. I have heard of a crocodile being captured in someone home one time but luckily no one was hurt. I also recall an Ape attacking a child at the zoo too. There have been incidents and each time it is far more scarier. It never gets easier to hear about them because of the harm they have caused.

Nay! :) Naks... You made an article bout it, hahaha! Amazing~! :) I regret not taking a photo of it in my own camera.. I saw it on my 2 own eyes!

i dont think they should have caught the crocodile. even crocodiles are Gods creatures. He created them and put them on this earth for a reason. that crocodile has just as much a right to be on this planet as any human does. i dont like how the animals were her first and humans just came in and took over. putting the animal in a zoo is wrong also just because the animal is so large. it is nice to look at and marvel at but if thats the case why dont we put any extra ordinarly large person in a zoo to marvel at too?
