No White Mongoose For Wilma

No White Mongoose For Wilma

Darren Brealey
0/5 ( ratings)
Wilma Cruikshank - an alumnus of University of Oxford and a contemporary of Charles Darwin - is remembered for being the first woman to pen a complete description of a fossilised dinosaur, the Megalosaurus. In her spare time, however, she was also a woman who insisted on dining on everything, including roast hedgehog, potted ostrich, panthers, porpoises, puppies; garden moles, though, are a bridge too far. However, perhaps Cruikshank's greatest gustatory achievement is her reportedly having eaten the shrunken heart of King Louis XII - a distinction that arguably overshadows her account of a Megalosaurus. Wilma continues to lament over the loss of her husband and seeks to bring the perpetuator to justice.
