Yeah. Too bad it’s not around for others to see it. Eating it would have been somewhat more ethical.
Buran
Crocs are not dinosaurs though

Well they are now!

Would like reference to check size
Vicissitude
Somewhere, Captain Hook places a pouch full of gold dubloons in a game warden's hand.
boondockscientist
For those unsure, this is a Saltwater croc
Peppersnaus
Why would you kill it? Let it live to eat more useless people.
cyllan
Why kill it tho

I don't think you should be barefoot around that thing...

Crocks ain't dinosaur, they existed side by side
skydivingbigfoot
But... Crocs are more basal archosaurs - not dinosaurs *heavy breathing*

ProTip: If the legs go to the sides of the body, it's not a dinosaur. If they go beneath the body, it's a dinosaur.

Oh No thos evil bastards killed an animal I'm making an instant judgement on them even tho the poor animal might have killed som1. *Sarcasm

Well now they are!!
LoveTheShiningWire
It makes me sad that they killed it. It seems a terrible loss to kill one so big and old.

There are three things i am terrified of...gators/crocs...clowns...bug eyed aliens

Lotta good meat on it

That's the son of Godzilla. He's only 6 months old.

It's the human way, we kill things. We're quite proficient at it really.
EggchanFrancis
Middle aged beings cop a bad rap. The young and elderly are deemed a much greater loss. Middle aged lives matter
Dianiko
That thing looks to be more that 13ft tall fuck, that is huge

That's unfair, he's just an old man.

My gf stuttered bad and called dinos "ding ding dinosaurs" once. I've called them ding ding dinosaurs ever since.

"This beautiful majestic creature has lived for a hundred years to get so big. Let's kill it!" Smh why?

food and skin
SneakySpoons
It might be a drain on the local ecosystem. It could be pushing out and killing other crocs in its territory or other various reasons.
LionHeart31337
It must have been a drain on the local ecosystem for a very, VERY, long time to get hat large.
Billyjackjay
Cuz fuck it, that's why. That the answer you're soliciting? Happy to oblige, go crazy.

slakevilkis
For the most part some animals can overpopulate, in predators ways, bigger threat means less food, so, remove threat, ecosystem grows
Sgtsmack65
Lots off farmers and families will have this done cause the eat goats,cows kids etc.. doesn't make it justifiable. Or ppl make money off em
graehall
It depends. If this is in Australia we take our wildlife conservation quite seriously. The choice to kill a croc is typically a serious one.
graehall
Typically problem crocs are relocated.
TrashyRomance
So yall don't hunt them for sport in America? We don't really need a good reason to put something down.
ImJustHereToShareMyCats
Calm your jets. Plenty plenty plenty more. Protected animal. Killed in moderation. Google expansion of croc territory. Number are massive
EarthmanDan
We're in their house, they're not in ours.
ImJustHereToShareMyCats
Why do humans have less rights to habitat then humans. Crocs have been given a very very large part of Australia
JBattlehound
Well technically crocs haven't evolved much in a long time so...
tumblrcansuckmybum
Alligators gonna alligate gate gate gate gate.

I am only afraid of three things im afraid of: alligators, crocodiles and brain aneurysms. Two of them are in this post right now!

STERLING!!
JBattlehound
Your comment just gave me an aneurysm.

Now 3/3 things are in this post
ChrisCostasBeard
Aww, people don't get it :(
darthOnion
Can't improve on perfection.
Sgtsmack65
I thought alligators/crocodiles were basically dinosaurs. Aren't they still considered prehistoric creatures.
vauhtihirmu
ProTip: If the legs go to the sides of the body, it's not a dinosaur. If they go beneath the body, it's a dinosaur.
Sgtsmack65
What about pterodactyls. Their legs go under them.
vauhtihirmu
I have the impression that they extend to the sides (or behind) the body, and then bend towards the ground when they were not in flight.
Sgtsmack65
I always thought the legs where directly under them kinda like birds.
TheGreenHornet
Only in the sense they are old as fuck, but not dinosaurs in the technical way. Even the flying and sea creatures of those periods are 1/2
TheGreenHornet
2/2 not actually dinosaurs. That term was reserved only for the land based animals of the time. Blew my mind when I found out.
Sgtsmack65
But they where around with dinosaurs right? Which in a way would be considered Dino's. I could be wrong. Animal history is not my best
Anfalicious
They were, but so were cockroaches and mosquitoes.
aStupidTaco
Well technically it's an alligator so...
mazzadawizzed
I didn't think alligators grew this big... saltwater crocs do though.
Gargusuz
In Turkish, we do not have seperate name for crocodile and alligator. We call them both "Timsah"
boondockscientist
100% certain Saltwater croc. I'm a zoologist. In Australia. To me, this is not even close to looking like a gator
jepplax
wow, cool job! thanks for clarification
WitchyVixen
Yep I agree with you, the snout is v shaped and.. to me, its way too large for an alligator.
clutchthepearls
Are we sure that's not a crocodile? The snout isn't very wide and it's probably the biggest damn gator ever if it is one.
Lobuttomize
Yeah I doubt any gator will ever get that big
ifistandroidgirls
Im pretty sure its a croc. Source: im floridian
JBattlehound
Fair, we don't have many of those in england, so i can't really tell them apart
Sgtsmack65
You can tell by the nose. Crocodiles have pointy ones. Gators are more round. That's how I know anyway. Plus crocs can be way bigger
LionHeart31337
Pretty sure the nose thing is inverse. But crocodiles do get to be of epic proportions.
clutchthepearls
Alligator has a C shaped snout. Crocodile has an A shaped snout. That's how I remember.
jepplax
if crocs get way bigger how big can they be, if this is an aligator?!
Sgtsmack65
This is the biggest on on record
asianjon
And of course they have to kill it
endrsgm
i guess you prefer it eating people?
HughLaurie
For all you know, it was dead from old age or something when they found it.
SerLaughalot
Don't be silly! We must get on the angry bandwagon and not acknowledge the lack of context.
Bystandr
Not what happened to this one if other commenter is to be believed. Old age. It is what happens to most of them (who are captured), however.
MotherfuckingRollyPolyChubbyCheekedShitMachine
Yeah why? motherfuckers
demonic
Only reason I can think of is it was attacking people and it's hard to relocate them because they tend to find their way back
bjaerven
non reproducing big beasties make room for younger beasties
Bulldog405
I mean a croc. this size can be very dangerous if it's in a heavily populated area. They tend to enjoy children sized snacks..
SpitefulRed
There's plenty of children to go around...
wadatahmydamie
Survival of the fittest.
Sgtsmack65
It's an alligator btw.
strayfromthepath
Nope
Sgtsmack65
boondockscientist
The crock in your link is a freshwater. The one in post is definitely a Saltwater croc
Sgtsmack65
Okay enlighten me. How am I wrong?
asianjon
*slowly pulls up a chair and grabs some popcorn
LoveTheShiningWire
Too bad they couldn't relocate it.
wadatahmydamie
Right? There are lots of places for children to live.
LionHeart31337
If only we had this thing called technology! What a glorious world it would be. Seriously could have relocated it.
PrincessWasabi
Such a shame to be killed for surviving well and for a long time
Dragongirl7256
It's possible it had found food/been fed in that area; and started equating humans with food in which case it would be too dangerous.
pisshole
Also possible that it was found dead?

It's almost like there are too many people.
