“He is certainly old”, told Live Science, Steven Austad, a biologist who studies animal aging at Alabama University. If he's 100 or 130, we don't really know. A 124-year-old is not impossible for a crocodile”, he added.

Known for his terrible teeth, Henry is believed to be the biggest living crocodile. It weighs 700 pounds [700 kg] and is 164m long.
