The capture of the biggest crocodile on earth was the major news that spread worldwide especially in the archipelago of the Philippines. Straight from Agusan del Sur last Sept, 2, 2011.

Lolong, the largest Pinoy Crocodile and the largest crocodile in the world so far measuring 6.4 meters of 21 feet was captured at the Agusan marsh has been in the care of Palawan Wildlife Rescue and Conservation Center (PWRCC).

Lolong has finally started to eat. According to a report by ABS CBN News, Lolong ate 7 kilograms of pork last night. Lolong’s keepers have become worried over the past weeks for his refusal to eat, and feared that the crocodile’s health would deteriorate. However, experts have said that this is just part of Lolong’s adjustment to life in captivity.

At 6.4 meters and 2,370 lbs, the crocodile has been recognized by the Guiness Book of World Records to be the largest salt water crocodile in captivity. Local officials have named the crocodile 'Lolong' and are planning to use it as a tourist attraction.

Reportedly, another Philippine crocodile is even bigger than Lolong – his mate. Agusan authorities are currently preparing plans for her capture. A bigger enclosure is also being readied.

There isn't any videos of Lolong eating yet because he's still adjusting to life in captivity, but here is some footage of some of the other large saltwater crocodiles in captivity in the Philippines -- eating... seriously, these incredible giants are HUGE. I would love to one day see them in person.
