Villagers and veteran hunters have captured a
one-ton saltwater crocodile on which they plan to make the star of a
planned ecotourism park in a southern Philippine town, an official said
Monday.
Mayor Edwin Cox Elorde
said dozens of villagers and experts ensnared the 21-foot (6.4-meter)
male crocodile along a creek in Bunawan township in Agusan del Sur
province after a three-week hunt. It could be one of the largest
crocodiles to be captured alive in recent years, he said, quoting local
crocodile experts.
Elorde said
the crocodile killed a water buffalo in an attack witnessed by villagers
last month and was also suspected of having attacked a fisherman who
went missing in July.
He said he sought the help of experts at a crocodile farm in western Palawan province.
About
100 people had to pull the crocodile, which weighs about 2,370 pounds
(1,075 kilograms), from the creek to a clearing where a crane lifted it
into a truck, he said.
The crocodile was placed in a fenced cage
in an area where the town plans to build an ecotourism park for species
found in a vast marshland in Agusan, an impoverished region about 515
miles (830 kilometers) southeast of Manila, Elorde said.
"It will
be the biggest star of the park," Elorde said, adding that villagers
were happy that they would be able to turn the dangerous crocodile "from
a threat into an asset."

Hi! You may call me Stuck in the Philippines because I am literally stuck in the Philippines! I'm just kidding. My name is Kristian. This is my first blog and it first started out as travel blog. But then I started involving my love for the entertainment scene mainly the movies and concerts scene. Once I started blogging, I couldn't stop.
A little bit about myself. I was born and raised in Dubai (U.A.E) until I went to Arizona (U.SA). You could say I love traveling. For the record, I am a Filipino. I just lived and studied abroad. A graduate of Southern New Hampshire University and Maine High School graduate, I feel that life has more to offer. I'm a Business Administration graduate but this is something I feel that I am passionate about. I love to breakdance but I'm not getting any younger. I like traveling but that requires a lot of cash. But I love to explore.
Since I love traveling, I first started this blog as a travel blog and I was bored. Anyway, once I arrived in the Philippines, I decided to stay for awhile and adapt to the Filipino way of life. Trust me! It wasn't easy since I had to adjust from scratch! But everything turned out well.
How I started blogging? It was when a friend suggested that I should blog. My first thought of blogging is that it was a boring job and besides what do I blog about? Voila! That's how my blogging world began and now I'm hooked! Now I mainly blog about events, news, movies, concerts and travel! A lot huh? By the way, I do make some grammar mistakes on my blog but hey nobody is perfect! =)
If you have any ideas, suggestions, please don't hesitate to drop me a line. You may contact me at kristianmarfori at gmail dot com . You may call/text preferably text me at +639166464362. Please state your name, email, contact details and inquiry.
Much love!
Kristian
