Man-Eaters

A specific variant of the Hungry Villain is the "man-eater", a non-human antagonist (usually a monster or an animal) that is known to prominently feed on human flesh. Not to be confused with a Cannibal and inapplicable to animals that prey on other animals of their species. Man-eaters can have several ways of eating; eating only certain parts of the body (such as organs or blood), chewing somebody (usually giant monsters) and even swallowing whole. Animals such as Canines, Felines, Birds-of-Prey, Reptiles, Predatory Fish, Bears, etc. often belong to this within fiction.
