Lolong is Now the Largest Crocodile in the World

Lolong, the crocodile found in Agusan del Sur last September, is now a certified largest crocodile in the world.

Lolong is 20.3 feet long as measured by National Geographic's Dr. Adam Britton, a well-known crocodile expert. "There's no doubt in my mind that he is the biggest crocodile," Britton said.

Lolong's length makes the reign of Australia's Cassius Clay, which measures 17 feet and has recently been declared by Guinness World Records as the largest in the world, short lived.

Now that he's measured, I'm sure Pinoy's can't wait for the Guinness recognition and his spread in the 2012 Book of Records.
