Supposedly after catching this monster of a croc the townfolk were saying they say an even BIGGER one still out in the wild. Makes me glad our Alligators can't/don't/aren't allowed to get that big!

Yeah! Luckily there's no gators up here in New England :P Actually I think it would be sorta fun to be able to spot one once in a while. Imagine a 21 foot croc :P I just paced 21 feet in my room and that's huge! The picture doesn't give it justice for just how big that animal is.

I've seen some good sized gators in the wild when I last visited Florida, but if they were 8 feet I would be surprised. I can't imagine a 21 footer.
