Gustave the Crocodile

Roch Thériault and The Ant Hill Kids

Lost on a glacier for 75 years

  • Gustave is a large male Nile crocodile from Burundi. 🇧🇮 He is notorious for being a man-eater, and is rumoured to have killed as many as 300 people. 
Since Gustave has not been captured, his exact length and weight is unknown, but in 2002 it was stated that he could be “easily more than 18 feet” (5.5 m) long, and weigh more than 2,000 pounds (900 kg).The last reported sighting of Gustave was in June 2015. A resident claimed that Gustave dragged an adult bull buffalo on a riverbank.
  • George Metesky, better known as the Mad Bomber, terrorised #NewYorkCity for 16 years in the #1940s and #1950s with explosives that he planted in theatres, terminals, libraries, and offices. #Bombs were left in phone booths, storage lockers, and restrooms in public buildings, including #GrandCentralTerminal, #PennsylvaniaStation, #RadioCity Music Hall, the New York Public Library, the Port Authority Bus Terminal and the RCA Building, and in the New York City Subway. Metesky also bombed movie theatres, where he cut into seat upholstery and slipped his explosive devices inside.
Angry and resentful about events surrounding a workplace injury suffered years earlier, Metesky planted at least 33 bombs, of which 22 exploded, injuring 15 people. He was apprehended based on an early use of offender profiling and clues given in letters he wrote to a newspaper. He was found legally insane and committed to a state #mentalhospital.
