20.3 feet caught in a fishing net off the north east coast of Australia. Records of 28+ft Saltwater Crocodiles do exist ageing back some 20 - 30 years or so; whether they are genuine or not is another matter. The Smithsonian has a 27 footer mounted there in the Natural History section. Resently in kakadoo national park in northern Ausrtalia they caught a salty that was 41 feet and 2 inches

The largest species of crocodile is the Saltwater Crocodile. The largest recorded crocodile in history is a Giant Saltwater Crocodile measured at 8.6 metres (28 ft.) and 1,352 kg (2,980 lb). The largest living crocodile is a saltwater crocodile that measures 7.1 metres (23 ft.) and about 2,000 kg (4,400 lb).

Saltwater crocodiles grow to be the largest. There is a massive Nile crocodile named Gustav. But at an estimated 23 ft length, he comes up short compared to recorded and documented saltwater crocodiles.

Not quite, the largest saltwater crocodile scientifically proven, yet not quite accepted was 23.7 feet long. Many people think that since niles are just smaller than salties Gustave is only large for a nile. That is not true He is abnormally large even for a saltwater.

a 30ft crocodile is being hunted at the moment in agusan province in the Philippines after decapitating a 10 year old girl.

a 33ft long crocodile was caught and killed in luzon, Philippines in the 1880s.

The crocodile caught in Agusan, Philippines is 21 feet (6.4 meters) long and weighs in at 1,075 kilograms (2,370 pounds)

An Indo-pacific crocodile 28 feet 4 inches long was shot on the MacArthur Bank of the Norman River, Queensland, Australia by Mrs Kris Powloski in 1957. Kris' husband Ron was a recognised crocodile expert and measured the body. Sightings of giants like this persist in remote parts of Asia and Australia. The African Nile crocodile is said to approach these sizes as well. One mammoth individual in Burundi is over 23 feet long.

It is very well possible that it was 28 feet long, but the largest in the world currently is a 23 footer in the Bhitarkanika National Park in the Orissa state of India.

It was a 27 ft crocodile (8.24 m), and weighed around 4000 lb. There is a crocodile living on a creek at a beach in Cedar Bay North Queensland Australia that locals estimate is 9 metres long. Its a solitary old male and very agressive. When standing its stomach height on a 180 cm human. Rumour has it that the late great Steve Irwin knew of two crocodiles well over 9 metres 'somewhere in Northern Australia' but would never reveal where to prevent trophy hunters ever finding them.
Saltwater croccodile is the largest, strongest reptiles on earth. Its lenght growes to about two small cars.

The largest crocodile in captivity is 20 feet, 3 inches in length and weighs roughly 2,200 pounds. The crocodile, named Lolong after a wildlife expert who suffered a stroke and died during the planning stages of the capture, was caught in the Philippines and is now housed in a special exhibit in Agusan del Sur.

The largest crocodile known in the wild is believed to be about 23 feet long. The Bhitarkanika Park on the Orissa Coast of India is home to many large crocodiles, one of which has been accepted by the Guinness Book of World Records as the largest living crocodile.

Reports of crocodiles exceeding 28 feet have occurred in Australia. In 1957, a woman named Krystina Pawloski shot a crocodile that allegedly measured 28 feet, 4 inches in length. However, the measurement was never verified and no remains of this crocodile exist.
