The 21-foot reptile was captured in a remote Philippine village following a spate of attacks on humans and livestock.
A giant saltwater crocodile believed to be the biggest ever caught has been captured in a remote Philippine town.
The 21ft, 2,370lbs reptile may have eaten a farmer who went missing in July, along with several water buffaloes in the southern town of Bunawan, crocodile hunter Rollie Sumiller said.
A crocodile also bit off the head of a 12-year-old girl in Bunawan in 2009, according to the environment ministry.
Josefina de Leon, wildlife division chief at the environment ministry, said that the beast was likely the biggest crocodile ever captured.
