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.

Initially, the largest skull of Saltwater crocodile is from the Cambodia which is now housed in Paris Museum. It measured 76 cm from the tip of the snout to the back of skull table, maximum head width of 48 cm and 98.3 cm mandible. It was estimated this croc perhaps around 22-23 feet long. But there are Saltie skulls albeit shorter in dorsal skull length but wider than the giganormous skull from the Cambodia, for example a Saltie skull named Edgar in Singapore museum which is 70 cm from the tip of the snout to the back of skull table and maximum head width of 52 cm. This wide Saltie skull is believed to come from Java, Indonesia. Anyway, Lolong's dorsal skull length (from the tip of the snout to the back of skull table) is 70 cm but narrower at 45 cm.
