The crocodile, 15 meters long by 2 meters high, was mostly finished by Liu Qingwu, who spent at least four days on the project.

Liu, a retired school teacher, made a similar carving that was a bit smaller last year, leaving some passengers-by to comment jokingly said that Liu's crocodile has "grown up".

A 3-meter-long carp also got a lot of attention. [Photo by Zhu Wanchang/asianewsphoto]
