Monster Crocodile in New Orleans

this is all confused it says right there in the secound paragraph that his one in the pic was found in congo some one jus fuked up when they said monster croc it should say monster gator

the crocodile was carried down during during the hurricane by swimming with the strong currents the carried it to new orleans where it later lived and due to the fact that it was not capable of catching its own food it was convienant for it to feast on the dead bodies.

What kind of clown said that they should rehabilitate the crocodile. That has to be the stupidest thing i have ever heard. Yeah lets rehabilitate the thing that only know to kill. God what a moron. Its too bad the thing didnt eat them instead.

All anyone with half a brain had to do is look at the picture to know it wasn't taken in New Orleans. Give me a break...Look at the buildings, people and vehicle...please!!! It's really pathetic that the public can be so easily led down the primrose path. I find it a bit scarey that people are so ready to believe anything they receive in e-mail, without even looking into it first. Cattle to slaughter...

Some of the comments are laughable!!! seriously choice in fashion has nothing to do with a croc eating a person,,, what does is hunger and opportunity.... further more statements about crocodiles in the states coming only from florida are also wrong , I've personally seen one in the ogeechee river in Georgia... So i would recon if there in ga, they could very well be in a few other southern states... also for those wondering some differences between alligators and crocodiles, i dont claim to be a exspert but visually croc's heads are pointier vs alligotors very very wide rounded head.... also crocs have higher scoups (the ridges on there backs) alligators are lower, also alligators are fairly dark colored creatures , and from what ive seen in zoo's and the 1 sightin in the ogeechee river croc's seem to me to be a bit lighter in color than alligators... And not that i know from exsperience or fact but ive heard there teeth differ to , but personally dont wanna get close enough to either to find out......
I also feel a great loss for this animal, and great sorrow that we as humans could not or would not use the technology we possess to try and capture this animal and create a safe habitat in captivity.... After all we do have nursing homes for our elderly, why not a old croc home for a animal that very well already had outlived most humans..... I hope whomever was involved in the death of this animal took great satisfaction in killing one of the last living dinosaurs!!! and for all you who will say it killed humans it had to die, i say we have murders in prision, why not a croc in captivity!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yall have a good day!!!

Wow.... sounds like someone (see above) hit a nerve. I agree to some of his/her points, but this isn't politics. Opinions are like assholes; everyone has one and they stink!

As far as the hoax... wouldn't you think that ABC, CBS, NBC, FOX, or CNN would cover a story of a monster croc in New Orleans??? Some of you are probably saying,

Cruelty to animals , with a shoot first attitiude should hit a nerve with us all!!!! But then again
It doesnt suprise me the level of cruelty humans can inflict on lesser species, just look what we do to each other!!!! Anyways someone has to speak on behalf of the animals!

Just so ya know:
And as for as the stench in someones rear end ya might wanna try to wipe and use soap and water, should cut down on that stinch alot for ya...
And if proper hygene doesnt seem to do the trick ,ya might wanna check with a doctor something else could be wrong...
Have a nice day!!!!!

in some former post there was a few people wanting to know differences between alligators and crocodiles, heres a site done at UGA that has a very good picture of a alligator a crocodile and a kamen all is a single picture...

http://www.uga.edu/srel/crocodile.htm

hope this helps!!!! Yall have a good one!!!
For other info on crocodiles , alligators , and other reptile species ya might wanna check out The Crocodile Hunter, Steve Erwins , at Austraila
Zoo... He seems to have a great fascination with these beautiful creatures as well.. Might be a good place to start.....

it is real im is 7th grade and i know that. besides my science teacher told me and showed the whole class those same three pictures. she even meashured 21 feet from one side of the room tho another. ITS REAL!

7th grader,
Yes the pictures are real , but the were not taken in New Orleans , they were taken in the congo back in 2003, someone was playing a joke and reposted them and said they were in new orleans..... the crocodiles here in the state are much much much smaller species than those found in the nile river system, Austrailia and Africa,, No worrys about one that big here!!!

BenjiWenji
News flash: Crocodiles do kill humans!!

And, although we may be smarter , wouldnt go as far as to say we are superior than creatures who have been around decades upon decades longer than ourselves, I mean think about all the animals in just the time that crocodiles//alligators have been on the earth that have died completly out, and the ones still to die out before the croc//alligator!! I mean deserves some sorta respect!!! For all you know they may even out live the human species!!

alrighty lemme clear this here stuff up, I spent my whole life in Louisiana, and a family who traps alligators, first off this isn't an alligator it is a crocodile, there isn't any crocs in louisiana, there is a small breed of crocs in florida that are much smaller and shapped differently, I agree this is a really old animal, but its not from louisiana, its not an alligator, and those aren't reall soul brothers from New Orleans.....

--gumbo luvin fool,
geaux tigers!

Yall are all full of crap, those are New Orleans folks. Louisiana folks are some of the most friendly people around. Make those comments about the color of there skin and makeing remarks that make them out to be like the people on the movie Water Boy is just childish and emature.
and one more thing, May la Bau tau Rou Lay

Dont know how many louisiana people you've seen!
But the people in the photo are clearly not !!!
Also theres another picture on another site were the licence plate is clearly visible and its clearly a tag from a foriegn country!! (like say o, The Congo, in Point-Noire) Anyways there are many many many different kinna people in New Orleans , From plaid, overall wearing backwoods people, to thug types, to men in business suits,, to the vodoo kinds, all the way down to you average day american blue colored workers..

Lousiana is a very nice place to visit, Just stay clear of martigra place turns into a made house, i only thought st. patricks day in savannah was crazy... Have great day!!

what was in the stomach of the crocodile

well, yeah, of course crocodiles kill humans. So do spiders. And mosquitoes. Hell, all of these animals might outlast us. But don't go telling me that they're superior to us. I think they're awesome animals, but if humans wanted to wipe out the entire species they sure could (not that it would be a good thing or even an ok thing, just saying it's possible).

I think in a way they are lying because it would be seen from all the planes that fly around I mean if he is that big I would notice something like that if i was in a plane and if nobody seen that then its no telling what else might be on this earth.

its just like gas prices it isn't doing nothin but making poor people poorer and making more crimes in areas because theres a lot of people in the united states that are having money problems and there really not making it now because they can't pay for gas because they got to pay there bills and they don't make it to work because they have no money for gas so they get fired because they had no ride to work so the goverment it just getting all the money he don't really know what hes doing to us because hes got it made becasue hes getting our money and i think i am speaking for everybody.

No, Tate, if you were speaking for everybody, you'd be coherent.

Look at the picture closely and bear in mind that crocs have long slender snouts and and gators have short stubby snouts. view other pictures on the web also.

im into all this giant reptile things i really like aliigators and crocs

Uh, Tate, just out of curiosity, what the f*ck are you talking about? You make no sense at all. How is a Giant Crocodile hoax in any way like rising gas prices? If you could just point out like one similarity, or even something that isn't a similarity but maybe a correlation of some kind, everyone would be much obliged. Thank you.

I used to live in Louisiana and for some one to make this mistake on a reptile that does not even habitat this southern region is plain stupid. What A Hoax!!! It's not even an Alligator you Dumb A@*%s!!! ITS A FRIGGEN CROC!!! What did school teach you? Especially those who live in Louisiana for buying this BS!

Who ever was talking about the plates, there are no plates on this vehicle. If you are referring to the "80" and "90" in the white circles....that's not a license plate. Otherwise, I don't see what anyone is talking about on that.
As far as "not standing next to the croc if it were truly real, IT'S DEAD! If you look in the supposed article, it says that it's being kept in the freezer and they will be examining the stomache for it's contents. Whether this is a hoax or not, it still may be a real croc anyway, just not in the right area. Also, you have to keep in mind the possibility that it could be real. There was a hurricane and things including live things could have been swept out of its origin. Secondly, even if the trucks plates were indeed not NOLA or American doesn't mean anything, people from many places came to help out there. who's to say no one from S.A. came up here, who knows what their plates look like. You just never know, but why rule out anything?!?!?!

you know its sad that so many unexplainable things are going on in the world today.you dont know what to believe.things that are happening now were so far fetched even 15 years ago.i knew the crocodile was real so i just believed the story for a minute too.my first thought was how many fisherman has this thing munched on?then i went to my t.v. and turned on fox news. nothing about a crocodile,so i knew it was bogus then.whoever did this should find a better way to entertain themselves than turning a tragic situation into humor.

dude. you cannot "rehabilitate" a prehistoric eating machine with a brain the size of a pea. what are you gonna do? read him his Miranda Rights and send him to therapy?

that's a croc (literally). its big, its dumb, it eats and it sleeps. and it tends to be territorial and return to its territory even after you move it someplace else. when it threatens people, you kill it.

"This crocodile was killed by the army last Sunday at 3:00 pm, currently he is in the freezer at the Azur hotel. The contents of it's stomach will be analyzed."

If the Army killed it why aren't there any Military around? and I have been trying my best to find this motel and the only one's I find are in the Congo and France.

Living in croc country all my life (Northern Territory and North Western Australia). I wondered how an Australian croc ended up so far away from home.They travel around but not that far.It supprised me because one that big would have already set themselves up within a river system as the dominant male and being that big would have no rivals or natural preditors. I did see one that big the other day on the fitzroy river so I did'nt go fishing.

Figures. From the dress of the people in the photo, you know it's not in New Orleans, and seems military wouldn't miss a chance for credit, in which they'd SURELY be in the photo.

Meanwhile, I'll be drinking Absinthe (http://absinthe.protoprotoss.net) so I can illusion all this stuff attacking me and I have reason to run.... or stay intoxicated.

Actually, there are crocs in North America, and they are small saltwater crocs, often living around mangroves in the salt. I have seen 4 or 5 on fishing trips in Mexico, and trust me, these are no gators.

first of all no person in their right mind that lived in new orleans would even try to catch an alligator let alone a crocodile. second as someone pointed out it is not in new orlenas because of the licsence plate. third there is no hotel named azur in new orleans. and lastly who would beleive by even looking at the picture that the croc weighed 4,500 pounds because elephants weigh over two tons and that thing comes no where close.

What is the difference between an alligator and a crocodile. An alligator is a specific species (or two if you count the chinese alligator) and a crocodile is any memeber of a whole genus. An alligator is a crocodile.

Now we have lost the one man who could have wrestled even that thing to the ground

THAT A BIG CROC LOOKS LIKE A 33FTEER :gulp:

''YO'' CROCS RULE :coolhmm:

is that the fatest croc.
saltwater crocs are the best. :long: :blank:

Well, I guess that Redd got a good point about the weight, But the middleweight of an elephant is around 3-5 tons, but I know what you mean, althought this is a huge croc they got there there's simply no possebility for it to weigh that much. And the origin of this specimen? Well i guess it heritage is not America, more likely Africa or Australia, I think the that this is a Nile Crocodile but I'm not to sure about it.

Now I may not be some sort of crocodile expert but I am smart enough to know THERE ARE NO CROCODILES IN LOUISIANA only alligators and I know this because I have grown up in New Orleans all my life and I have never heard of a crocodile in Louisiana.Second of all there is no Azur hotel in Louisiana.Sure,a crocodile could get flushed down the toilet but to hide out for eighty years undetected ? Not likely, besides since it would be so big it would require a major food source in which case fishermen would notice a BIG dent in the fish population and a lot of gators would be going hungry or adding to its food source so a lot would be disappearing so let me put it loud and clear, THIS IS A HOAX.

Crocidiles are not native to north america and back when they brought out that movie LAKE PLACID i mean if a croc ever et a liberal it would get sick

any more pics?

n/a

everyone here is idiots those are people from louisiana they probly killed the aligator and the live in new orleans cause they r niggers
