Anubis the Jackal

Typical self-indulgent monomania from Emin there. Quite why The Independent think anyone would give a flying monkeys bum about it, I don't know. No sh*t. Now I really want to like Emins work, she's from my neck of the woods and I know a couple of people who were in her tent, as it were but damn, she's rubbish.

So they could shoot it with a regular gun, but not a tranquilizer? I can bearly believe that. What a grizzly ending. Etc. I think they Pooh-Poohed that idea. Surely having eaten all the hunny, the bear of very little brain would have gone halfway up the stairs for a nap?
