Gomek - 18 ft., 2,000 Pound Saltwater Crocodile

July 26th, 2012. Gomek was a gigantic saltwater crocodile that was 17 feet and 9.5 inches in length who was a long-time resident who died at the park in 1997. He weighed almost 2,000 pounds and was incredibly tame around his keepers as they would apparently enter his enclosure and stand only a meter away. His frame has been immortalized in a massive replica within a small air-conditioned building that also has many artifacts and artwork from Papua New Guinea.
