Dead - The Worlds Longest Crocodile

"The world's largest crocodile in captivity, Lolong, has died. Mayor Edwin Elorde of Bulawan, a small town in the southern Philippines that had been home to the giant croc, made the announcement Sunday."

I can remember when it first caught. Not that long ago as I recall.

It was always going to be a matter of time before this croc died in captivity.

I wonder if it will get eaten

I had a plate of spicy sizzling crocodile at the Crocodile Park in Davao last November. Bit tough.
No-one else even wanted to try a small piece.

Doesn't it taste like chicken?

Nah thats snakes isn't it?

Croc doesn't taste like chicken,I went to see Lolong when he was alive as I am fascinated by reptiles.
Anyway, got sent this pic earlier, a huge crocodile in Mindanao, supposedly equal in size or larger than Lolong.

What does it taste like?

It tastes gamey almost, stringy and chewy? I have had Croc and gator a few times, never likened it to chicken.

I orderd Crocodile in a resto once, said to the waiter make it snappy.
