hard to believe that the monitor lizard here in the philippines is new discovery. it hasnt been hiding. its always around forested areas all over the country. even around the fringe areas of the metro capital.

go to boracay, bohol, el nido, palawan or almost any beach resort and wander around the forest areas you might just see one.

locally its called the Bayawak. and sometimes you will see some petshops selling them. or markets selling the meat

The creature I think should be in the Top Ten is an energy creature that sucks energy out of our chakra vortices.

The body of this creature is similar to a child's school eraser with a flat back and a tapered front end. It has a hole in the bottom. It lands on your heart chakra, reverses the flow of the vortex and then sucks the energy into its body.

The result of this is to give you chronic fatigue syndrome that makes a person extremely weak. By mentally reversing the chakra, energy flows into a 1-meter long trough where the low-density energy sloshes around for six hours until it finally damps out.

JohnStClair,

A push-up is roughly 200 Joules... how many push-ups of energy does the eraser-creature suck out of a human heart chakra per-hour?

Can someone at popsci please make a slideshow widget so that users don't have to wait for the entire page to reload? just a suggestion
