Wildlife Dept catches 18ft crocodile in Sungai Kampung Banting, Sipitang

The Wildlife Department caught an 18-foot male crocodile in Sungai Kampung Banting, Sipitang, at 5pm on Monday using a baited line. Villagers believe it is the same crocodile that nearly attacked a fisherman last month, and a second line was snapped by what may be an even larger crocodile. The village committee chairman has advised villagers and anglers to stay away from the river.
