Wildlife park rangers in Australia's Northern Territory have trapped a 4.4-metre-long saltwater crocodile in the largest capture the region has seen in years, according to a ranger. John Burke, Katherine's chief wildlife officer, said the 350-kilogram male crocodile was caught in the Flora River in a remote nature park 120 kilometers southwest of the remote town of Katherine. He added that a larger crocodile, measuring 4.71 meters long, was trapped three years ago in the same area, but was caught in the Katherine River, which is closer to the sea. Crocodile numbers have been increasing across Australia's tropical north since they became a protected species under federal law in the early 1970s. The crocodile was transferred to a farm where crocodiles are raised, which can be killed later to obtain their meat and skin. The crocodiles are kept in large cages on the farm, given wild boars and other meat as food, and immersed in waterways.
