After 8 years of search, massive crocodile caught

After a long eight years of hunting, a monster saltwater crocodile weighing 600 kilograms was found in Australia. It was spotted for the first time in 2010 and then now in a trap downstream from the town of Katherine.

The crocodile's estimated age is about 60 years and is 4.7-metre (15.4-foot). The beast was taken to a crocodile farm to keep it in isolation from the local human population, said Northern Territory wildlife operations chief Tracey Duldig.

Duldig reportedly said in a statement, "He is the biggest crocodile ever removed from the Katherine River by the Wildlife Operations Unit."
