Cassius has reclaimed his crown.
 Green Island's resident giant estuarine crocodile, Cassius, measuring 5.48m, is once again the world's largest crocodile in captivity after Philippines' monster crocodile Lolong died on Sunday night.
 Cassius was first named the world's biggest by the Guinness World Records in 2011.
 But he was stripped of the title last year, when the 6.17m Lolong was captured in the Philippines' town of Bunawan.
 Authorities will try to determine what caused the death of Lolong who had become a star attraction of the marshy town of 37,000 people about 830km southeast of Manila.
