Meet his friend (or perhaps archrival), the 16-foot-long man-eating crocodile of Uganda. (The news story is slightly old, but now there's a slideshow and pictures, which make the link worthwhile.)

As the croc has eaten 80 people, "[T]he residents of Luganga wanted to kill the reptile after our rangers had captured it, [but] it is our responsibility to protect it by removing it from that area and keeping it in a safe place," says a Uganda Wildlife Authority spokeswoman.

No, no, no! Have you not read the pulps, the serial fiction, the comic books? What is with these people?
