Could it be that the Seil badgers have not been eradicated - but have actually been kidnapped by evil forces are now part of some covert gene manipulating mutant killer badger biological warfare experiment in Basra?
Here's tha latest from our man in Iraq...............Karim Jamil
"BASRA, Iraq (AFP) - The Iraqi port city of Basra, already prey to a nasty turf war between rival militia factions, has now been gripped by a new fear -- giant badgers stalking the streets by night.
Local farmers have caught and killed several of the beasts, but this has done nothing to dispel rumours of a bear-like monster that eats humans and was allegedly released into the area by British forces to spread panic.
Sattar Jabbar, a 50-year-old local farmer from Abu Sakhar north of Basra, believes the badger can tackle even large prey.
"I saw it three days ago at night attacking animals. It even ate a cow. It tore the cow up piece by piece. I tried to shoot it with my gun but it ran away into the orchards. I missed it," he said."
Lets be honest - it's not as far fetched an idea as the raptors!!!!!!!!
