This is very true. I have seen a few in my younger days. My cousin calls them Malcom stretchers because one caught his cat Malcom and streched it out and pounded it flat. They really use there suroundings to hind. In the neighbor hood I grew up in they would come out at night and hind behind telephone poles as I walked down the road I could hear them behind the poles ready to pounce on me. They are excellant swimmers as well. Everytime I would sneak into Loyal Oak Lake to take a swim I had to becareful not to get to close to the docks because that is where they hid in order to ambush me, grab me by my ankles, drag me to the depths of the lake to eat me. One funny thing about it, I have never seen or heard one since becomeing an adult:biggrin:
