There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

In fact, none of the specimens in this topic is larger than 4, maybe 5 meters long.
In fact, the largest crocodiles actually measured are between 6 to 6.5 m, probably 7 m "estimated", but 8 m, surely not.
I will put the pages from Guinness for reference.
Indeed.
If you look at the 28 footer, you will see that the legs on the crocodile are disportionately large compared to the rest of the crocodile compared to other large crocodile pictures you will see.
As you can see below, this is a 16+ footer and you can see, the larger the crocodile is, the smaller the legs get.
