Its a thousand metres thats pretty far. You could never make an accurate size assessment from that distance. I'd be amazed it any given circumstance you'd even see a crocodile from that distance they're not even that easy to spot from 100m away. Sounds like total bs tbh.
No different than estimating the size of a planet or star from earth. That’s just one kilometer you can get a pretty rough size estimate based on that.

Its been stated that there are Salties that can grow just over 30 foot moving in and out of Asian and Australia....28 foot could be medium size which is the scariest thing cause Australia has stopped culling crocs 3 to 4 decades ago cause we almost whipped them out duento crocs killing humans and farmers live stocks. So its 3 to 4 decades later since the cullings....28 foot is probably medium. Mind the waters up tip of Australia and take notice of yellow croc warning signs. A rule of law is that Billabongs and water holes in land have crocs in it, as crocs can live in both Salt and Fresh Water. Dont just jump in cause you might not resurface.
I saw and touched a 14ft dead salt water Croc in Northern Australia. It was floating on it's back and had a bite out of it by a Croc that was about twice the size bite as the dead one. Obviously a territorial attack. There is a 20 footer around this area too but the bite size was bigger. We are always careful around the top end because things grow bigger than anywhere else. Saw a hammerhead shark up close bigger than our fishing boat Our boat was 16 ft. Got quite a number of 1 meter plus barramundi. The bigger the crocs the more elusive they are and the older they are. They are very intelligent and experienced. It's very hard to spot them unless they want you to see them.

Crocs were shot to only a few thousand remaining until protected in the 1970's. The little ones have had 50 years to grow, there will be a few giants amongst them. North Australia has very few people living there, the rivers are silty, plenty places for the giants to hide.
Exactly. If it was actually 28ft long it would be the biggest one ever. But no one in their right mind is going to accept this just because Mr Hawkeye here estimated the length of the animal just by looking at it from a Kilometre away.
My wife and I were staying in a guesthouse in Siam Reap Cambodia. Our room was on the second floor and looked down on a swimming pool in the guest house next door. The pool was a 20 foot long pool and inside the pool was a crocodile that took up the entire length of the pool, nose to tail. I have never seen an animal so big and prehistoric looking; it was easily 18-20 feet long with an abdomen of at least 6-7 feet wide. It was awesome in the sense that I was in awe of how massive it was...

I am convinced early sailors who drew dragons with large teeth was because they saw these guys in the water. They move between Australia and Indonesia and the Philippines.
Man, idiots in here doubting a croc that is 28 feet can exist. A croc at 28 feet was already caught and killed more than half a century ago in Australia. It’s inevitable that a few saltwater crocs can hit close to 30 ft. Just like a few men are 7.5 feet tall.
Thats just factually wrong. The Croc I believe you are speaking of can't be confirmed in size. If we look at that famous picture we can see it's forced perspective making the animal appear so large. The largest ever Croc recorded was around 23 feet long. That's still a 2000 pound animal. It all comes down to two things. People want to tell fantastical stories, and they are also really bad at judging size. But of course if you want to show me evidence of a nearly 30 foot Croc I'd be happy to see it. In fact, I want it to be true! I just know it's not.

Crocs never stop growing their entire life, they don’t even know how long they truly live. For fuk sake they can eat one big meal and SIT IN THE MUD FOR 12 MONTHS AND NOT EAT ANYTHING, tell me that ain’t a fukin dinosaur. Really a blessing, they even exist today 💀
This is why I have to laugh when the Jurassic Park movies, and the developers of dinosaur videogames are always making their apex predators insanely active, always hunting, and always eating. Just look at the biggest land based predators on earth today, they are always laying around in the shade, conserving their energy until they finally get hungry again. In Ark: Survival Evolved they made the big carnivores insane, always running from victim to victim non-stop killing and eating.
@@thebluestig2654 That's because dinosaurs were birds and would have been warm blooded with fast metabolic rates. They would have needed a lot of food and would have been fairly active. Crocs are cold blooded animals and have very slow metabolic rates so they can go much farther between meals. Hence why dinosaurs are extinct and crocs are still here.
@@PogonaV They were reptiles, crocs are reptiles. What dinosaurs may or may not have evolved into is irrelevant to what they actually were at the time. The largest warm blooded predators on Earth today CONSERVE their energy until they get hungry again because they do NOT eat every day.
I remember seeing a programme years ago and there was a croc so big it was crazy. It had 6 bullet holes down it's side. The guy who was there said that someone tried to kill it years ago with a machine gun. It was massive
So, Ron and Krys Kowalski in 1967 were professional croc hunters in Australia, before the craze of croc/alligator hides in fashion became popular. Nobody had hunted crocs in Australia for any reasons at that time, and there were huuuuge crocs found and measured. The largest they killed and taped was 8.7 meters, which is 27ft-4in. A 16ft croc, standing to walk, will stand to the height of a grown 6ft man's waist. So that 27 footer would have been to the middle of his chest, and probably 4 to 5 feet wide, with a skull probably 5ft long as well. A nightmare for sure. Crocs and alligators continue to grow as long as they're alive, and a 27+ footer likely saw two centuries pass.
The Kowalski croc was removed from the Guinness world records due to lack of evidence Realistically the Kowalskis where crocodile shooters for a living, to think they shot the largest crocodile ever recorded (and largest by over 2m) and didn’t take any physical evidence is pretty far fetched It’s like a fisherman catching a world record and just letting it go without keeping it or even showing anyone
Not as stupid as the scientists that say that the universe is expanding. They can't see any edges and everything is moving around at all times. It's like an assembly in CAD that isn't locked to the origin.
@@JamesBrown-fd1nv The reason why they know its expanding is because the highest possible speed in a vacuum is the speed of light and everything is moving away from us. However if the highest possible speed is the speed of light then how can there be objects that we know are farther away than the age of the universe when we know the age of the universe as roughly 14 billion for a fact? It's because of that expansion. If the speed of light cannot reach a destination in an objective set of time that we have found time and time again to be consistent then the only solution is expansion. Furthermore we can see that things far away from us appear to be moving faster away than things close to us, this is observable in their redshifting. The speed at which the universe expands is still debated though, but it is faster than the speed of light-but since the Speed of ljght is the speed limit of physical objects within the universe, no laws of physics are broken. Look up Hubble's law to learn more about it.
I went kayaking down the suwanee river with my mom when I was like 8 and we saw a gator bigger than our tandem kayak. It was a 16 foot kayak. I know that sucker was longer that that and he was thick too. He had some girth to him. Slid right off the sandy bank he was laying on and right into the water. Only time I've ever been scared of a gator. Born and raised in Florida and I've never EVER seen any gator that big. I've seen so many record gators online in pictures and videos and he basically dwarfs those. My heart DROPPED when I saw him slide into that water.
Coming from a fishing dude, I severely doubt his claim. Remember they are the king of overestimation just to gain clout! "Dude! I once caught a Bass 3 feet long!". Hahaha. Never trust a fishing enthusiast when it comes to a creature size or weight!
My Dad said he saw a 23 footer in Australia back in 1964. They were hunting crocodiles with scopes on their rifles; that’s how he got the size. He also said the really big salties go out to the ocean to feed instead of staying in the rivers due to more food out there.
"We saw him from a kilometre away but that was enough for us to assume everything about him including size, behaviour and his denomination. Oh, and he had missing tooth as well." The Everglades Rednecks.
They say the longest anaconda is like 25-30 feet right? Now imagine a damn 28 ft saltwater crocodile… that’s literally a dinosaur ain’t no way that’s insane
I'm not saying that his statements are true or anything but you can't just dismiss the possibility of a croc at or near 28+ feet. Salties routinely get over 20 feet and as reptiles they never stop growing throughout their entire life. Now consider that they can live more than 100 years in some cases. It isn't a stretch to imagine an alpha bull croc with good genetics that stayed well fed and lived a long life getting to these size ranges. Accept it.
@@kevplescia4397 Anomalies in nature exist literally everywhere and we discover crazy things we didn't think were possible basically daily. All I'm saying is to keep an open mind and not immediately dismiss everything you don't entirely agree with at first glance. LOL.
@@williambeilfuss8138 there are anomalies. Like a crocodile could just get that very rare giant gene but that not natural at that point- it a genetic condition.
People often underestimate the intelligence of an apex predator that is very likely over 50 years old and has spent its entire life hunting day in and day out.
Those folk commenting about the size are way off. The crocs here in Oz will grow to 30 foot plus. They were shot for their hides before being protected in the 70's I think. A few survived and the numbers are growing. So the majority are of small size now, but give them another decade or two and the bigger sizes will be more common. We are too stupid to cull them, so only a matter of time before they start coming in on our lovely Sunshine Coast.
There are no 30 foot crocs anywhere in the world. Let alone Australia. Australia is full of reptile parks and zoos keeping saltwater crocodiles. These animals eat better in captivity and expend half the energy they do in the wild and they are still only 16-20 feet. Some of the Crocs at Australia Zoo have been there for 40 years. If they can get 30 feet long we would see that in captivity by now. As for Crocs invading the sunshine coast, it gets too cold in the winter months for Crocs to stay in that area all year round. Every now and again one will pop down during the summer but there's no evidence of a resident population so I think ur safe mate. Also, Croc populations are still lower than before Europeans showed up so there is no need for a cull. All that does is throw nature out of balance.
@@PogonaV Well Davide, Snapping Handbags have been in the Rockhampton area for many years now. One has been sighted at Maryborough, roughly 200 klms from Brisbane, knocking on the door of our Sunshine Coast. They are coming down because they are forced to. Either move out or get eaten. The bigger crocs push the smaller out, so it goes down the chain. A croc will have his territory, and protect it as best he can.Their only competitor of old , the Aborigines, used to eat them and their eggs, but largely that doesn't happen now. They are breeding up, virtually totally unfettered. Sure as a reptile they would prefer the warmer clime, but it is live or die. They seem to survive ok at Steve Irwin's zoo at Beerwah, a short drive from Brisbane. There are salties and freshies living quite happily there. As to length, I will say they will get to massive proportions, just give them time. I swam all over the Northern Territory in 1968, the Katherine River, etc, without a fear in the world. In 2008, I wasn't game to put my toe in anywhere.
28 feet is the size of the largest recorded Crocodile in history. It lived in the Phillipines during the 1820s. There were individual animals that were much larger back in the 1800s and early 1900s than any of their species gets to be now. Also, this man is almost definitely lying.
if its in the ocean it definitely doesn't know its prey not predator anymore. maybe if he stays in shallow water. he is a meal for a big shark or pack of killer whales, so many ginormous fish and mammals in the ocean its another ballgame
@@thebullbar1822 so I looked it up and all sites 99% saying this A great white shark would win a fight against a saltwater crocodile. These deadly creatures are incredibly powerful, but the great white shark has an amazing advantage in the water. Not only would this animal probably notice the crocodile first, but it also has the speed to land a devastating attack.Mar 8, 2023
The biggest crocodiles I've ever seen were those in the Nile river. Some researchers had trapped some of these Crocs and they were all over 20 feet long. When they growled, it sounded like a dinosaur type of growl. It was an amazing thing to see.
I've seen one of these! It almost looks fake because your mind can't process the enormity of it! the one I saw was down in Florida that I was told, hangs out in the back water swamp areas and those are remote you don't EVER go in those places!!! The one I saw was laying out in a recently tilled field laying under a tree! I was able to get around 50' away behind a fence to look at it! I didn't have a camera but my guess was at least 25' long! I stood there 15 minutes so I got a good look at it!!! Ginormous!!!

I am convinced early sailors who drew dragons with large teeth was because they saw these guys in the water. They move between Australia and Indonesia and the Philippines.
Man, idiots in here doubting a croc that is 28 feet can exist. A croc at 28 feet was already caught and killed more than half a century ago in Australia. It’s inevitable that a few saltwater crocs can hit close to 30 ft. Just like a few men are 7.5 feet tall.
If you can see it from a Km away its too big.....
People are not getting the point of how Big they can get
Thats just factually wrong. The Croc I believe you are speaking of can't be confirmed in size. If we look at that famous picture we can see it's forced perspective making the animal appear so large.
The largest ever Croc recorded was around 23 feet long. That's still a 2000 pound animal. It all comes down to two things. People want to tell fantastical stories, and they are also really bad at judging size.
But of course if you want to show me evidence of a nearly 30 foot Croc I'd be happy to see it. In fact, I want it to be true! I just know it's not.
@@PogonaV’s true
Looks way bigger than lolong no matter how you put it
Easily believable kris was 28ft
That’s what was said
And nothing suggest otherwise unless in denial
I saw an alligator snapping turtle the size of Butterbean one time. Literally like 400 lbs it was almost twice the size I was at 12.
That’s not a knife, THIS is a knife.
Florida got nothing on the crocks here in Australia !
And thank you my friend . Keep them . We don't want them.
Until some dumb bastard releases some in the wild
We have saltwater crocs too
@@juangallego5392 florida has american crocodiles, not saltwater crocodiles, different species
Wrong Florida has both and panthers and bears.
It’s impossible to see a 15 ft croc every 20 minutes 💀
That Croc was hunting them😂. That's why 😅
28 ft Croc 🐊? Naa that’s a dinosaur son
I saw Gomek once when he was alive at Marine Land in St. Augustine. He was only 18 feet and weighted around 2000 pounds. Gomek was a saltwater crock from New Guinea. I sold the alloy fasteners that held the panels on his tank.
Whoa! Marine Land brings back so many memories of field trips as a kid. Thank you for reminding me of that place.
Yep and he is the Pentecost river in Northern Western Australia, that is where the mother lives. The Helicopter Pilots were not a KM away either, they got a really good look at him. Anyone who doubts the story I recommend a trip to the Pentecost where it meets the sea, go for a swim and you will get to meet the thing, get to know him on a personal basis, wont be a long acquaintance though.
He never said the helicopter guys were a km away 🤦🏻♂️
@@husq2100
He’s talking about people commenting he was a mile away when he saw it. He’s saying the guy isn’t exaggerating, because the helicopter was right above it
Your off your head,it would be huge but more like 18 feet 😂
@@beaunuske8942 No it is closer to 28 feet, and I am not talking about the picture in this article just to be clear.
@@dalane5196 mate,I'm not trying to insult you or be childish.But the biggest croc ever officially measured was 20 feet(a touch under 7 metres)your suggesting this croc is nearly 10 metres,I have no doubt he is a big fella but it sounds like a bit of fishermans truth is slipping into this legend.Dominator in the Adelaide River is officially the largest croc alive
That Saltwater Cocodrile can be a good snack for Orcas 😂
Crocs never stop growing their entire life, they don’t even know how long they truly live. For fuk sake they can eat one big meal and SIT IN THE MUD FOR 12 MONTHS AND NOT EAT ANYTHING, tell me that ain’t a fukin dinosaur. Really a blessing, they even exist today 💀
This is why I have to laugh when the Jurassic Park movies, and the developers of dinosaur videogames are always making their apex predators insanely active, always hunting, and always eating. Just look at the biggest land based predators on earth today, they are always laying around in the shade, conserving their energy until they finally get hungry again.
In Ark: Survival Evolved they made the big carnivores insane, always running from victim to victim non-stop killing and eating.
Crocodiles are cold blooded animals though.
@@thebluestig2654 That's because dinosaurs were birds and would have been warm blooded with fast metabolic rates. They would have needed a lot of food and would have been fairly active. Crocs are cold blooded animals and have very slow metabolic rates so they can go much farther between meals. Hence why dinosaurs are extinct and crocs are still here.
@@PogonaV They were reptiles, crocs are reptiles. What dinosaurs may or may not have evolved into is irrelevant to what they actually were at the time. The largest warm blooded predators on Earth today CONSERVE their energy until they get hungry again because they do NOT eat every day.
Well it is a dinosaur
“Hey Jaime pull up that video of the Salt water crocs fight the grizzly bear”
I remember seeing a programme years ago and there was a croc so big it was crazy. It had 6 bullet holes down it's side. The guy who was there said that someone tried to kill it years ago with a machine gun. It was massive

@jameshyde022 yes mate, correct. I've been thinking about that name for days now. Thanks
@@scotmac5143 that croc was a bbeast. Unfortunately it has been reported that people claim to have killed him.
Need to watch that old Aussie show Northern Adventure where they shot one that went to 29feet.
“What’s the biggest one you ever seen” 😅😅😅😅😅
Definitely talking about northern Australia. We have a very different breed of crocodile here
I love stories like this! I can’t prove it true or prove it wrong. It just teases my imagination 😎👍🏼
JOE I saw a 12,000 pound Grizzly....
from 400 miles away.
So he saw it from more than a half mile away and figured out how big it was. Sounds like proof to me LoL
A km away and it was thought to be 28 feet.. soo.. 22 sounds about right..
So, Ron and Krys Kowalski in 1967 were professional croc hunters in Australia, before the craze of croc/alligator hides in fashion became popular. Nobody had hunted crocs in Australia for any reasons at that time, and there were huuuuge crocs found and measured. The largest they killed and taped was 8.7 meters, which is 27ft-4in. A 16ft croc, standing to walk, will stand to the height of a grown 6ft man's waist. So that 27 footer would have been to the middle of his chest, and probably 4 to 5 feet wide, with a skull probably 5ft long as well. A nightmare for sure. Crocs and alligators continue to grow as long as they're alive, and a 27+ footer likely saw two centuries pass.
The Kowalski croc was removed from the Guinness world records due to lack of evidence
Realistically the Kowalskis where crocodile shooters for a living, to think they shot the largest crocodile ever recorded (and largest by over 2m) and didn’t take any physical evidence is pretty far fetched
It’s like a fisherman catching a world record and just letting it go without keeping it or even showing anyone
Where's the evidence? Just because some one says so doesn't mean much
That crocodile loves sea food that includes us
You mean SEE food, right? Lol
"Have you tried feeding it elk meat?"
That’s literally almost the size of the animatronic crocodile from lake placid. Holy shit.
Yeah, 28' from a kilometer away - that sounds like a dependable estimate. Does he know how rediculous that sounds? 🤣😂
True but it’s gotta be 20 plus
Not as stupid as the scientists that say that the universe is expanding. They can't see any edges and everything is moving around at all times. It's like an assembly in CAD that isn't locked to the origin.
Hey American, a km isn't that far compared to a mile😂
@@bimmerM3003 I think it’s still like half a mile tho
@@JamesBrown-fd1nv The reason why they know its expanding is because the highest possible speed in a vacuum is the speed of light and everything is moving away from us. However if the highest possible speed is the speed of light then how can there be objects that we know are farther away than the age of the universe when we know the age of the universe as roughly 14 billion for a fact? It's because of that expansion. If the speed of light cannot reach a destination in an objective set of time that we have found time and time again to be consistent then the only solution is expansion. Furthermore we can see that things far away from us appear to be moving faster away than things close to us, this is observable in their redshifting. The speed at which the universe expands is still debated though, but it is faster than the speed of light-but since the Speed of ljght is the speed limit of physical objects within the universe, no laws of physics are broken. Look up Hubble's law to learn more about it.
"What's the biggest one you ever seen?"
That's my kind of conversation.

I went kayaking down the suwanee river with my mom when I was like 8 and we saw a gator bigger than our tandem kayak. It was a 16 foot kayak. I know that sucker was longer that that and he was thick too. He had some girth to him. Slid right off the sandy bank he was laying on and right into the water. Only time I've ever been scared of a gator. Born and raised in Florida and I've never EVER seen any gator that big. I've seen so many record gators online in pictures and videos and he basically dwarfs those. My heart DROPPED when I saw him slide into that water.
The hell were yall in a kayak in croc infested waters😮
Coming from a fishing dude, I severely doubt his claim. Remember they are the king of overestimation just to gain clout! "Dude! I once caught a Bass 3 feet long!". Hahaha. Never trust a fishing enthusiast when it comes to a creature size or weight!
There’s crocs over there growing to 22 feet casually, a 28 footer isn’t that far fetched.
you have obviously never been to Australia.
My Dad said he saw a 23 footer in Australia back in 1964. They were hunting crocodiles with scopes on their rifles; that’s how he got the size. He also said the really big salties go out to the ocean to feed instead of staying in the rivers due to more food out there.
I've heard that a lot.
That's a giant monster imagine running into this in a 20 foot boat and this monster swims up to the side and you say WE NEED A BIGGER BOAT...
"We saw him from a kilometre away but that was enough for us to assume everything about him including size, behaviour and his denomination. Oh, and he had missing tooth as well."

Lol that Aussie was pulling the piss out of you the largest recorded croc was just over 20 ft but god help you if a drop bear comes along
They say the longest anaconda is like 25-30 feet right? Now imagine a damn 28 ft saltwater crocodile… that’s literally a dinosaur ain’t no way that’s insane
That croc would fit in my RV with a foot to spare. 🤣
I saw an ostrich from 3 miles away. I estimated it was the size of a T-rex. Thing was massive!!
Then it would be 40 feet wtf
I saw the moon once through my window. I estimated its size at about 37 suns. Maybe 38.
😂😂
That croc is 1’ longer than my house’s width. Holy crocodile!
Reminds me of an old XXXX ad: you don't have to worry about sharks, crocs got all of them...
I'm not saying that his statements are true or anything but you can't just dismiss the possibility of a croc at or near 28+ feet. Salties routinely get over 20 feet and as reptiles they never stop growing throughout their entire life. Now consider that they can live more than 100 years in some cases. It isn't a stretch to imagine an alpha bull croc with good genetics that stayed well fed and lived a long life getting to these size ranges. Accept it.
The 1s that reached all your requirements for it to get big only made it to 22 feet... lol
@@kevplescia4397 Anomalies in nature exist literally everywhere and we discover crazy things we didn't think were possible basically daily. All I'm saying is to keep an open mind and not immediately dismiss everything you don't entirely agree with at first glance. LOL.

Those folk commenting about the size are way off. The crocs here in Oz will grow to 30 foot plus. They were shot for their hides before being protected in the 70's I think. A few survived and the numbers are growing. So the majority are of small size now, but give them another decade or two and the bigger sizes will be more common. We are too stupid to cull them, so only a matter of time before they start coming in on our lovely Sunshine Coast.
There are no 30 foot crocs anywhere in the world. Let alone Australia.
Australia is full of reptile parks and zoos keeping saltwater crocodiles. These animals eat better in captivity and expend half the energy they do in the wild and they are still only 16-20 feet. Some of the Crocs at Australia Zoo have been there for 40 years. If they can get 30 feet long we would see that in captivity by now.
As for Crocs invading the sunshine coast, it gets too cold in the winter months for Crocs to stay in that area all year round. Every now and again one will pop down during the summer but there's no evidence of a resident population so I think ur safe mate.
Also, Croc populations are still lower than before Europeans showed up so there is no need for a cull. All that does is throw nature out of balance.
@@PogonaV Well Davide, Snapping Handbags have been in the Rockhampton area for many years now. One has been sighted at Maryborough, roughly 200 klms from Brisbane, knocking on the door of our Sunshine Coast. They are coming down because they are forced to. Either move out or get eaten. The bigger crocs push the smaller out, so it goes down the chain. A croc will have his territory, and protect it as best he can.Their only competitor of old , the Aborigines, used to eat them and their eggs, but largely that doesn't happen now. They are breeding up, virtually totally unfettered. Sure as a reptile they would prefer the warmer clime, but it is live or die. They seem to survive ok at Steve Irwin's zoo at Beerwah, a short drive from Brisbane. There are salties and freshies living quite happily there. As to length, I will say they will get to massive proportions, just give them time. I swam all over the Northern Territory in 1968, the Katherine River, etc, without a fear in the world. In 2008, I wasn't game to put my toe in anywhere.
A 28-footer (8.6 meters) was shot and captured in 1957 on the McCarther Bank in the Norman River, Queensland
Croc flexing in the ocean until a new pack of orca get a taste for croc.
28 ft bruh.... That's like as long as some dinosaurs itself
28 feet is the size of the largest recorded Crocodile in history. It lived in the Phillipines during the 1820s. There were individual animals that were much larger back in the 1800s and early 1900s than any of their species gets to be now. Also, this man is almost definitely lying.
if its in the ocean it definitely doesn't know its prey not predator anymore. maybe if he stays in shallow water. he is a meal for a big shark or pack of killer whales, so many ginormous fish and mammals in the ocean its another ballgame
If an Orca sees it fame over
No he’s not lol. Crocs prey on Sharks MORE THAN ANY PREDATOR. Sharks can’t deal with an adult Saltie. Carry on
@@oWo4L omg shutup
Sharks are croc food, and orcas prefer more temperate seas. Salties this big have only one predator - dudes in boats.
@@thebullbar1822 so I looked it up and all sites 99% saying this
A great white shark would win a fight against a saltwater crocodile. These deadly creatures are incredibly powerful, but the great white shark has an amazing advantage in the water. Not only would this animal probably notice the crocodile first, but it also has the speed to land a devastating attack.Mar 8, 2023
What’s even more scary is salties are one of the very few animals that see humans as pray
The biggest crocodiles I've ever seen were those in the Nile river. Some researchers had trapped some of these Crocs and they were all over 20 feet long. When they growled, it sounded like a dinosaur type of growl. It was an amazing thing to see.
