In the last few hours thousands of social network users were shocked by a new viral video that circulates on different platforms such as Twitter. After a giant crocodile measuring 14 feet in length and weighing 1,102 pounds was captured in a town in Indonesia, where the inhabitants decided to cut off its head as part of a traditional ritual to prevent it from “chasing” them again, they considered the animal to be a “demon”.
In the following viral video you can see the moment when the gigantic crocodile is moved with the help of heavy machinery. Later he was beheaded and before being buried it was found that he had no teeth. “The body and the head must be buried separately because this is a demon. Before cutting it, there is a special ritual,” said a local official after residents measured the specimen.
According to the head of the Bangka Belitung Natural Resources Conservation Agency, Septian Garo, they tried to negotiate the delivery of the crocodile with the locals to relocate it to a safe place, however, the proposal was rejected “due to religious beliefs”, since they affirmed that, if the animal would be left alive, all the town would be condemned.
