Burt, Iconic Crocodile from “Crocodile Dundee,” Passes Away at 90

Legendary reptilian actor who helped shape Australia's global image passes away at Crocosaurus Cove

Burt, a famous saltwater crocodile best known for his part in the 1986 movie “Crocodile Dundee,” has died at Crocosaurus Cove in Darwin, Australia. The beloved reptile “passed away peacefully over the weekend,” according to people at the facility. It is thought to be over 90 years old.

Burt was a huge 5.1 meters (16 feet 8 inches) tall and weighed about 700 kilograms (110 stone). His appearance helped make Australia famous worldwide for its dramatic wildlife in movies. He was caught in the Reynolds River in 1980 and named after star Burt Reynolds. Later, filmmakers found him at a crocodile farm.

Penny Priest, CEO of Crocosaurus Cove, said, “Burt was a force of nature. He was one of a kind and had a great personality.” In a key scene, his most memorable moment on film was when Paul Hogan’s character, Mick Dundee, saved Linda Kozlowski’s character, Sue Charlton, from a crocodile attack. Priest said that even though models were mostly used for the scene, “the scene was filmed using the motions of Burt launching out of the water.”

Besides being famous for his movies, Burt kept the public interested throughout his life. In 2007, he gave ideas for the special effects in the movie Rogue. In 2018, he showed an unusual ability to predict the outcome of sports events by rightly predicting France’s win over Croatia in the World Cup. He did this by biting a French flag with chicken pieces on it, making people think of Paul the Octopus, famous for making accurate soccer predictions.

Since 2008, Burt has lived at Crocosaurus Cove and has become an icon for crocodile instruction there. He was known for his independence and “fiery temperament,” during his earlier years working at a crocodile farm, he chose to stay a “confirmed bachelor.”

Crocosaurus Cove wrote in their tribute that Burt had a big impact on how people around the world saw Australia: “Burt’s life story is one of strength, resilience, and a personality as bold as the Top End itself… helping shape Australia’s image as a land of rugged natural beauty and awe-inspiring wildlife.”

The center wants to honor Burt’s memory by putting up a sign honoring his amazing life and services to wildlife education. His death marks the end of an era in Australian movies and wildlife protection.
