Green Island, Australia - Cassius, the largest crocodile living in captivity, recently turned 120 years old and he's still growing, leaving scientists stunned at his longevity!
A saltwater crocodile, Cassius stretches out to a whopping length of 17 feet and 11.75 inches, making him the largest captive crocodile in the world – and he owns a Guinness world record to prove it!
And the most surprising thing about Cassius is that he's still growing.
Graeme Webb helped capture the croc in 1984 and he determined Cassius has grown 13 inches in the last 20 years.
