Steff Posted September 22, 2005 Share Posted September 22, 2005 Supposedly this crocodile was found in New Orleans swimming down the street. 21 FT long, 4,500 lbs, around 80 years old minimum. A specialists said that he was looking to eat humans because he was too old to catch animals. This crocodile was killed by the army last Sunday at 3:00 pm, currently he is in the freezer at the Azur hotel. The contents of it's stomach will be analyzed. Looks real...

Queen Prawn Posted September 22, 2005 Share Posted September 22, 2005 Why'd they kill him? Was it because he couldn't (realistically) feed himself anymore? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steff Posted September 22, 2005 Author Share Posted September 22, 2005 QUOTE(Queen Prawn @ Sep 22, 2005 -> 09:33 AM) Why'd they kill him? Was it because he couldn't (realistically) feed himself anymore? Because he was a threat to human life and they were unable to transport him to a safer place.. It's HUGE!!

Still cool...no doubt But I think that would've been a huge news story if it happened in New Orleans. Another giveaway was how the people in the picture were dressed...I mean there is poverty in N.O. but I doubt they would be wearing that kinda stuff out there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mercy! Posted September 22, 2005 Share Posted September 22, 2005 By me, the human attire looked totally appropriate for New Orleans in late summer. But that snout screamed, well, CROC. You’d only expect to see alligators in Louisiana, not crocodiles. And two tons plus? That is most definitely a croc o’.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyyle23 Posted September 23, 2005 Share Posted September 23, 2005 Its still a humungous f***ing creature. I wouldnt be surprised if that thing was hunting people just because it could. 21 feet, thats completely amazing. Thats an older animal.
