The largest saltwater crocodile in captivity has died in the Philippines.
The crocodile was captured in the town of Bunawan after a three-week hunt involving dozens of people in September 2011 and then became the star attraction of an eco-tourism park.
The giant reptile, which measured 6.4m (21ft) and weighed in at 1,075kg (2,370lb), had begun to draw local and foreign tourists to the town.
It was declared the world's largest in captivity by Guinness World Records last year.
