Wildlife authorities in the Philippines captured a 21-foot long saltwater crocodile. Hunters spent three weeks trying to capture the crocodile. The crocodile destroyed several traps, but a team of 30 men finally managed to capture it by baiting it with meat. CNN reports that the huge crocodile is suspected in the deaths of a fisherman and a girl. A photo here shows the local Mayor posing with villagers and the crocodile. Take a look:
