A 5.48 metre (18 ft) Australian crocodile that held the world record as the largest crocodile in captivity has died, a wildlife sanctuary said on Saturday. He was thought to be more than 110 years old.
Cassius, weighing in at more than one ton, had been in declining health since Oct. 15, Marineland Melanesia Crocodile Habitat said on Facebook.
“He was very old and believed to be living beyond the years of a wild Croc,” according to a post by the organisation, based on Green Island near the Queensland tourist town of Cairns.

I might be mistaken, but aren’t crocs one of those species that just continue to grow and only die because of external factors or disease, and not old age?
I thought they die because they can no longer support their weight either because they can’t digest enough or hunt enough food to sustain their size?
