Henry – the world’s oldest crocodile – has six girlfriends and over 10,000 babies.

Born on 16 December 1900, he turns 124 later this year.

And he’s become quite the attraction at Crocworld Conservation Centre in Scottburgh, South Africa.

Known for his huge size and formidable fangs, the Nile crocodile was born in the Okavango Delta, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, in Botswana.

And the reptile, which measures a whopping 16ft in length, has been officially recognised as the oldest croc in the world.

In the early 20th century, he became famous among local tribes for feasting on young children.

That is until tribe elders enlisted the help of renowned British explorer and hunter Sir Henry Neumann.

But instead of killing it, Mr Neumann captured the beast, which was eventually named after him.

Henry, who today weighs 700kg, has spent the last 30 years residing at Crocworld.

According to the zoo, he has fathered over 10,000 hatchlings and boasts six partners.

But while he holds the title for the world’s oldest croc, he isn’t the largest.

He was officially recognised as the world’s largest living saltwater croc by Guinness World Records in 2011.

The huge reptile was captured in 1984, as reported by What’s The Jam.

Nile crocodiles are found across 26 countries in Sub-Saharan Africa.

Considered apex predators, they are responsible for numerous deaths in the region every year.
