00:00Not like other islands in the province of Tawi-Tawi where the number of tourists is decreasing,
00:11Kinital Island in the town of Languyan is still easy to travel to.
00:16That's why it's a big surprise for the residents whenever they have a chance to visit their island.
00:24Not tourists, but...
00:30A huge crocodile
00:35that looks like a crocodile.
00:46The capture of a huge crocodile that is full of tension.
01:00Has Lolong found his match?
01:08Another huge crocodile was caught in Tawi-Tawi.
01:14It's just a small part of Lolong, the biggest saltwater crocodile that was caught.
01:22Finally, some asked, why didn't they just let it go in its natural habitat?
01:30The crocodile was already seen by the fisherman, Kanai, just yesterday, on January 5.
01:44That's why Kanai immediately returned to the shore.
01:47The residents were worried.
02:04Ponsing didn't shy away from the fear.
02:07He immediately went to their island.
02:18The crocodile didn't move.
02:23Two days have passed, but the crocodile still hasn't left its habitat.
02:29They don't know if it's just playing or planning something.
02:34Whatever it is, it's a warning to the residents that they shouldn't go to the sea
02:39to catch a fish that is their priority.
02:44We are not afraid of the crocodile, we are just worried that it might harm our family.
02:50We are just worried that it might harm our family.
02:54That's why they put it in their barangay.
02:58We are afraid of the crocodile, because we don't know what it will do to us.
03:02We don't know what it will do to us.
03:06We don't know what it will do to us.
03:09We don't know what it will do to us.
03:12We don't know what it will do to us.
03:14We don't know what it will do to us.
03:18They are also preparing the equipment to catch the crocodile.
03:23We are not afraid of the crocodile, even if it's just 5 meters away.
03:27Even though they are afraid, they still have the courage to go to the sea.
03:32I'm not going to catch a crocodile, I'm afraid of the crocodile.
03:35I'm going to kill you.
03:37I'm not going to kill you, I'm afraid of the crocodile.
03:41I'm not going to kill you, I'm afraid of the crocodile.
03:47But they can't do this if the crocodile is going to a deep part of the sea.
03:54That's why Ponsing tried to throw a rock at the crocodile
04:00to bring the crocodile closer to the shallow part of the sea.
04:08And when the crocodile was close to the rock,
04:15the crocodile swallowed the rock.
04:19That's why Ponsing tried to bring the crocodile closer to...
04:30When the crocodile was close to the rock,
04:34Ponsing tried to bring the crocodile closer to the shallow part of the sea.
04:42When the crocodile was close to the rock,
04:46Ponsing tied the crocodile's mouth and tail.
04:50When the crocodile was close to the rock,
04:56Ponsing tied the crocodile's mouth and tail.
05:00When the crocodile was close to the rock,
05:05Ponsing tied the crocodile's mouth and tail.
05:11And this is really a disaster, especially when it's so close.
05:16This is the first time I've seen a crocodile as big as my grandfather.
05:19That's a big one.
05:23They tied the crocodile's mouth and tail correctly,
05:25except for the part where it has a lot of strings and has a lot of fangs.
05:29Because the crocodile's front foot is not attached to its ribs.
05:35They tied the crocodile's tail to the rock, which is a few meters away from the house.
05:41When it's close, the crocodile is security to his house.
05:45Even if the crocodile's hair is compared to that of other crocodiles,
05:48it's not the same.
05:51When the crocodile comes closer,
05:54the crocodile's mouth and tail are not attached to its ribs.
05:58This is how it is with Norma's family,
06:01who lives far from the crocodile's home.
06:04But Norma's family, who lives near the border of Buaya, has a grudge.
06:17The last Buaya, they immediately reported to the local government unit of Languyan.
06:34We were hoping that the riot would stop.
06:37But they didn't stop the riot.
06:41That's why this Friday, the provincial government of Tawi-Tawi
06:46sent Buaya to Barangay Kinital to be rescued.
06:51But there's a problem.
06:53Because of the size of Buaya, they don't know how to fit it in the boat.
07:00Until Buaya suddenly became aggressive.
07:12How big is this Buaya?
07:15Is this really the replacement for the throne of Lolong?
07:19How big is this Buaya?
07:21Is this really the replacement for the throne of Lolong?
07:26The shocking events in the ongoing rescue operation
07:31in the last Buaya in Tawi-Tawi at the end of Mindanao
07:35in our return.
07:50Luzon Visayas, Mindanao.
07:52Tutok na!
07:53Hashtag KMJS na!
07:56A huge Buaya was seen in Languyan in Tawi-Tawi.
08:07After the violent attack of the residents in Buaya,
08:11their problem now is how to turn this over to the local government.
08:17This is our problem.
08:18We have to ask for help from the local government.
08:20We have to ask for help from the local government.
08:22So, we can help out these people.
08:24If they leave us here, we will go to the local government.
08:29So, we can help.
08:33So, this Friday, the members of the provincial government of Tawi-Tawi
08:37went to Barangay Kinital to rescue Buaya.
08:41the provincial government of Tawi-Tawi
08:43went to the barangay Kiniktal
08:45to rescue the crocodile.
08:47The last crocodile caught
08:49was a saltwater crocodile
08:51just like Lolong.
08:53But this one was 18 feet long
08:55while Lolong was the
08:57world's largest crocodile
08:59when it was caught
09:0120 feet long.
09:03That's why Lolong is still the record holder
09:05even though it's already extinct.
09:07This crocodile that we saw
09:09doesn't have a good body
09:11I think it doesn't get
09:13a good amount of food
09:15during its travel.
09:17As you can see, its back
09:19has some bones.
09:21Maybe this crocodile is already resting
09:23and it will leave because
09:25that island doesn't have a good habitat for it.
09:27If that's the case, we will prove
09:29and measure it correctly
09:31and according to our record,
09:33it is over 18 feet
09:35and it was mentioned that
09:37Lolong is 19 feet long.
09:39This is the largest crocodile
09:41in the world in captivity.
09:43But to make sure that
09:45this crocodile won't attack,
09:47they tied it with a rope
09:49in its mouth.
09:51They also tied its feet.
09:53More than 10 people
09:55rode this on a boat
09:57to bring it to a rescue facility
09:59in the nearby town of Bonggaw,
10:01the capital of Tawi-Tawi.
10:03The crocodile was calm
10:05at first,
10:07but later on,
10:09it suddenly became
10:11aggressive.
10:13That's why
10:15some residents
10:17had to run.
10:19After 40 minutes,
10:21the crocodile seemed
10:23to be tired
10:25and asked to be carried
10:27on a boat.
10:33Because of the danger
10:35that there could be
10:37a crocodile attack
10:39on their island,
10:41the residents of Barangay Kinital
10:43called for help.
10:45They told us
10:47that we can't
10:49bring the crocodile
10:51to the island
10:53because it's too dangerous
10:55to bring the crocodile
10:57to the island.
10:59Even in paradise,
11:01even in paradise
11:03where different creatures
11:05are divided,
11:07there is always a savior,
11:09there is always a guarantee
11:11for the safety of each one.
11:19Thank you for watching, Kapuso!
