Absolutely BLEEPING Huge crocodile captured


"Residents of Bunawan township celebrated when they captured the croc, with about 100 people pulling the feared beast from a creek by rope, then hoisting it by crane onto a truck. While the beast was safely tied up, they examined its teeth, claws and stubby legs with fascination.
Their party may have been premature, however. After the 20-foot (6.1-meter) reptile was caught over the weekend, authorities said Tuesday an even bigger crocodile may still be lurking in creeks of the remote region in Agusan del Sur province.
The scaly skinned Lolong - which tips the scales at 2,370 pounds (1,075 kilograms) - is estimated to be at least 50 years old. Wildlife officials were trying to confirm whether it was the largest such catch in the world" http://m.apnews.com/ap/db_15806/cont...in Philippines

So dinosaurs still do exist! Shame though that the croc was probably older than anyone else in that village...can't be good karma for them.
