Alligators cannot die by aging, so technically Mr. Crock could live forever.

Who is ready to regularly visit Saturn in Russia to be sure that he is fine, and will be the first immortal crocodile known to mankind?

>should we call a human doctor?
>nah fuck that, lets keep pumping this drunk asshole full of gator meds for a while

pretty sure all mitochondrion-based life die by aging, because of the ROS

based and greenpilled

They usually die because they get ill or don`t have enough food, because they grow more and more physically and thus demand more food

"Senescence is a term used to indicate gradual deterioration of the body with age. In simpler words, you could call it ‘aging’. Specifically, weakening of muscles, lowering mobility, poor sensory acuity and age-related diseases are signs of an animal showing senescence. Most animals exhibit Senescence. So, as we get older our deteriorated life parameters increase our risk of dying – Humans exhibit Senescence; Crocodiles do not."

For starters, it's a myth that crocs and gators never stop growing. "No, crocodiles don't grow indefinitely, prevented from exceeding the size of a small moon only because they get killed first by a competitor!" croc researcher Adam Britton told me.

Studies on several species have shown that once a crocodile has reached its adult size, its growth slows down, eventually reaching a point where the animal is effectively not getting any bigger. "The largest crocs are the ones that grow the fastest when they are young," said Britton.

What's more, crocs do feel the effects of old age. Another crocodilian expert, Adam Rosenblatt, told me that while the ageing process in these animals is still not fully understood, the evidence we do have "all points to the conclusion that crocodilians are not immortal and are subjected to natural ageing and death processes". In the wild, an older, weaker croc is more likely to face starvation or competition, but even in captivity, the animals inevitably die. As they age, gators and crocs lose strength and overall body condition just like us humans. They tend to lose their teeth, some develop cataracts, and females produce fewer eggs.

Holy shit those eyes. It`s like he is directly looking at my soul

I took that pic years ago at Silver Springs, Florida back when they had zoo animals. This is the first time it has been posted on Jow Forums AFAIK.

I'm pretty sure all humans look the same to them, just like all alligators look the same to us.

The crocodile design is one of evolution's wins. The design so successful it has changed very little since the age of dinosaurs.

just imagine seeing a croc that big

*tip*

Are sex crimes on animals that common in Florida? I saw an article about a kid that tried fucking an armadillo and caught leprosy.

That`s an amazing pic, wonderful moment to catch.

I thought maybe one alligator had a scar or anything remarkable that made you recognize him, or that one alligator behaved differently around you because of your presence. Would have been cool though

he's also very old for an alligator now. Hang in there boy, 4th reich is coming

He is a big guy

In Florida, anything is possible (especially Polk County, where the majority of the idiot White Trash "Florida Man" articles originate).

Fuck u, crocs immortal

Definitely ate some hiding jews

lack of food and lower oxygen levels and colder climate

Well, I can tell the difference between a croc and a gator by looking at them. Although alligators in Florida are thriving, they are still marked as endangered to indirectly protect the American Crocodile, which look similar and are actually endangered.

I mean, he's not wrong
People fuck alligators over there

God willing he’ll make it and be immortalized in history

There are other gators to have lived this long

I find it hard to believe jewmeat contributes to longevity. That shit has to be toxic.

>People fuck alligators over there
The only hypothetical way you could pull that off without getting your dick torn off while it's doing a death roll to escape is to gang rape it or sedate it. I have personally never seen any news articles about any attempts at this. It seems like a lot of work for little to no reward.

replaced, too. big gator wants you to buy lacoste

I imagine Jewmeat tastes a lot like pussy: milk and coins

What if this gator ate 6 gorillion jews on his own and we just don`t know about it?

>immortalized in history
I'd say he's made it. He's a celebrity on one of the most important websites in the world...

So tell me Jow Forums if a crocodile this size was charging towards you, what would you do? Let's say you're only armed with a sawed off shotgun with two shells and a large hunting knife.

Nothing is too difficult for the infamous Florida Man

The story of Corporal Wojtek is pretty interesting. After the Germans invaded the Soviet Union, the Soviets decided to release all the Polish soldiers they had captured earlier in the war, to the British to go fight the Axis in North Africa; while traveling through Iran a group of these Poles bought a bear cub, and named him Wojtek,which became their unit mascot. When it came time to invade Italy, the Brits being the sticks in the mud they are, told the Poles that they were only shipping soldiers over. So the Polish did the logical thing and enlisted Wojtek in their army. He did well enough to be promoted to Corporal during the war; he was really good at carrying crates of artillery shells. After the war, he ended up in a zoo in Scotland, and some of his former veterans would jump into the cage to wrestle with him.

Empty the shotgun into the ground to create a hole for me to hide in. Then as the beast passes over, plunge the knife into its underside, opening it up. Then I would climb into it and become it.

is this true?

Yes it is.

You call that a knoif?

Next time you're in Florida, check out Gatorland.

>Old roadside attraction south of Orlando that predates Disney World
>Gator feeding frenzy demos (footage of this was used at the end of Temple of Doom)
>Gator wrestling shows
>Rare albino and very rare leucistic (blue eyes instead of red) live gators on display
>Zip lines over gator enclosures
>Nighttime tours inside gator habitats
>Brand-new swamp buggy tours (pic related)

It's a fairly decent low-price (for Orlando) attraction, though the last three things above are upcharge things. Also, they serve fried gator bites at the snack stands, but they are ridiculously overpriced, and you can get those at virtually every other beach-themed restaurant in Florida for much cheaper.

The jumping into the cage part is bullshit.
Do you know how deep down bear enclosures sides are? Atleast 20 feet. I have a hard time believing an old polish man could survive that fall then wrestle a bear.
Makes interesting fiction though.

Look into legends of the "Mahamba". Might be a relic suchas species that survived.

>Barney was a small Malayan Sun bear, the mascot of Company Alpha, 5th Special Forces Group, Airborne, Ben Hoi, South Vietnam. Discovered by the soldiers as an orphan cub, he would be put in a knapsack when the company parachuted on missions.
>Sgt. Jerald Hilleson was especially fond of Barney. When the sergeant's tour of duty ended, he decided to take the bear with him, and managed to ship him home in a 727.
>Barney lived at Fort Bragg for two years before dying of pneumonia. Sgt. Hilleson, ever the pal, decided to have him stuffed. The taxidermist didn't do a very good job, and when Barney was donated to the fort's Special Warfare Museum, people soon complained of the horrible smell. Still, Barney was a base legend, so the Museum couldn't just throw him away. Instead, they sealed him inside a Plexiglas box, where his lumpy, half-hairless form is still an object of conversation.
