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.

Incredible! In fact, I have the document of Dr Whitaker (attached file) and the skull measured 68.6 cm, just as large as the ones from Australia! In table 1 of the document we can see that the estimated total length was of about 540 cm. That is why he believes that the crocs in Lake Chamo are real giants among the crocs in the world.

By the way, if someone read the document and ask about Ts - Tomistoma schlegelii, it is the false gharial: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/False_gharial
