I don't know if this is really true but it is really scary!!

Can you imagine walking down the street and seeing this thing coming
toward you?

Now this is a Crocodile!

This crocodile was found in New Orleans swimming down the street. 21 FT
long, 4,500 lbs, around 80 years old minimum.

Specialists said that he was looking to eat humans because he was too
old to catch animals. This crocodile was killed by the army last Sunday
at 3:00 pm, currently he is in the freezer at the Azur hotel. The
contents of it's stomach will be analyzed this Friday at 2:30pm.

This is what Snopes.com says about those pics:
No, a 21-foot crocodile has been not been found swimming around the flooded streets of New Orleans in the wake of Hurricane Katrina. These photographs were taken in a very different part of the world over two years ago, and someone has simply altered the text that originally accompanied the pictures in e-mail forwards and changed the locale to New Orleans:

Salt Water and Nile croc's can get that big. From the rest of the picture, that is what it looks like. Also, around NO its not so much crocs as alligators.

Considerable variation exists throughout the range of the Nile crocodile. Generally, it is a large crocodilian, averaging 5 m in length but reportedly reaching 6 m in rare instances. There are dubious reports of 7 m animals having existed, but these are hard to verify.

7 meters would be approx. 22 feet

5 meters would be approx. 16 feet

And Saltwater croc males avg 6-7 meters (they are the largest crocodiles).
