Burt, the celebrated crocodile who starred in the iconic Australian film *Crocodile Dundee*, has died at the estimated age of over 90. He passed away peacefully last weekend at the Crocosaurus Cove reptile park, where he had lived since 2008.

The park announced his death on Instagram, calling it the end of an incredible era. Burt was described as a crocodile of remarkable strength, resilience, and bold personality. His presence was as powerful as the Australian wilderness itself.

Captured in the 1980s in the Reynolds River, Burt rose to global fame through his role in the 1986 comedy. His most unforgettable scene showed him lunging at a reporter near a riverbank, opposite Paul Hogan and Linda Kozlowski.

The film was a massive success, grossing around $328 million and launching two sequels. Burt’s performance helped shape the world’s view of Australia as a land of rugged beauty and awe-inspiring wildlife.

At Crocosaurus Cove, Burt became a fierce and fascinating ambassador for crocodile education. Known for his fiery temperament and independent nature, he was a confirmed bachelor who commanded deep respect from caretakers and visitors alike.

The park honored him as more than just a crocodile—he was a force of nature. His life embodied the raw, untamed spirit of the saltwater crocodile and reminded all who met him of their majesty.

Plans are underway to honor Burt with a commemorative plaque. He leaves behind a legacy etched in film and in the hearts of those who admired him. Rest in peace, Burt.
