Fans have mourned the death of Burt the crocodile in the 1986 blockbuster Crocodile Dundee. Burt, the 5.1-metre 700kg monster crocodile from the comedy adventure film, who starred alongside Paul Hogan, died in captivity in Darwin. He was thought to have been over 90 years old.
Crocosaurus Cove, a crocodile herpetarium and aquarium attraction which had kept Burt in captivity since 2008, announced the reptile's death on Monday. 'It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Burt, the iconic saltwater crocodile and star of the Australian classic Crocodile Dundee,' the facility posted on its Facebook page.
'Burt passed away peacefully over the weekend, estimated to be over 90 years old, marking the end of an incredible era.'. Crocosaurus Cove plans to honour Burt's legacy with a commemorative sign at the attraction. But which of Burt's co-stars have outlived him? And where are they now?.
Crocosaurus Cove, the facility where the reptile lived in captivity since 2008, announced Burt's death on Monday. Before becoming the star of Crocodile Dundee, Paul made his name in the talent show New Faces, performing as a tapdancing knife thrower. The reclusive 85-year-old has been married three times - including to his co-star Linda Kozlowski until 2014.
Hogan was also married twice to Nolene Edwards, the mother of five of his children. When they split it was described as Australia's ugliest celebrity divorce. The couple could be set for a reunion next year, when a 4K Encore Cut of the movie hits theatres.
