I always look forward to reading the local newspapers because they deal almost strictly with Santarém people and events. The February 29, 2008 edition of O Impacto really caught my attention because of two articles about wild animals- a black-caiman that ate a fisherman and a large anaconda snake found right here in the city. The front page features photographs of both, plus another of three children whose bodies were carbonized in a house that caught on fire. I won't bother my readers with the details of the last article, but the first two are demonstrative of the fact that there's still some wildness left in the wild.

Gruesome, but interesting, too.
