MANILA, Philippines -- A 13.7-foot (4.2 meter) saltwater crododile was captured alive in the Philippines on Monday and will be examined to determine if it killed a fisherman last month.
The male crocodile had to be tied, blindfolded and carried by more than 10 men. It was estimated to weigh up to 770 pounds (350 kilos).
The giant was captured in a trap set up along the Rio Tuba river to hunt for the crocodile that ate the fisherman's legs, said Alex Marcaida, a spokesman for an environment council in Palawan province.
