World’s Oldest Nile Crocodile Celebrates 124th Birthday

Henry, believed to be the world’s oldest known Nile crocodile in captivity, celebrated his 124th birthday at the Crocworld Conservation Centre on December 16. The centre’s second-oldest and second-biggest Nile crocodile, Colgate, was among his friends to mark the occasion.

To celebrate Henry’s special day, the guests were treated to cupcakes before singing “Happy Birthday” to the elderly reptile. This milestone birthday marks a testament to Henry’s enduring popularity at the conservation centre.
