Subject: Re: Tsava maneaters more like mansnackers From: Guodzilla posted Mon, Nov 2 2009, 7:19pm  I used to live in Illinois, and IIRC those two are in the Field Museum, Chicago. The Field also has the maneater of Mfuwe, as well. Also, the story behind those two gave rise to the movie a few years back entitled "The Ghost and the Darkness."

Jim Corbett. He made a career of hunting maneating tigers and leopards in India for many years.

I'll have to see if I can track it down.

The Tsava story is still quite amazing by any standards. Subject: Re: Tsava maneaters more like mansnackers From: mel33770 posted Fri, Nov 6 2009, 1:18am  I recommend the any book by Peter H.Capstick. "Maneaters", "Death in the Long Grass" or "The Maneaters of Tsavo" are very good reads. See, Gerry? I told you I'd check in soon. Gawd, it's been like, forever. Might even post again if I get to feeling saucy. I've read this one at least 10x!
