I still say this species is not native to this area. I think it was imported to this nature preserve. OR is a snowbird.

Indeed - he may be huge, but I bet he could still move quickly if he wanted to

I have serious doubts about the authenticity of this video

Gators/crocs get this big no doubt. But they can also move surprisingly fast. Nobody in their right minds would be standing there so casually taking pictures. Or lying prone just feet from the beast?!? Yeah...right.

Sorry...don't buy it.
