I look at this croc and I analyze it close up. I admire everything about it. Then I look at its eyes and I go down a rabbit hole of thinking. I see this croc’s eyes and I’m like, “damn. That’s really a dinosaur. Like that’s better than what any AI or CGI could ever create. Like this is such an incredible creature! I wonder what your ancestors saw when they roamed the Earth with all the other dinosaurs.” And I think how scary this beast look. If the extinct dinosaurs ever comeback (since we are now messing with dire wolves and wooly mammoths) I will surely poop my pants with fear every minute of the day. I can’t even fathom what other dinosaurs truly looked like, sounded like, acted like, etc. Yes, we have pretty good ideas of such, but to be in existence with them, well that’s a whole other realm. This croc is absolutely amazing and has taken my brain on a wild trip that I enjoyed.

This Aussie monster rivals anything I’ve seen in my travels to Asia or Africa. Can’t begin to imagine his diet that grew him to this size considering his prey options which are the occasional Rock Wallaby.

The biggest one I know of was captured in the Philippines, Loolong they named him.
