Millerpuss
A semi-aquatic creature that can be found in / around puddles and shallow, slow flowing streams across all of France.

It's diet consists of the soft cheeses native to it's homeland, as well as the occasional child.

In recent times the French authorities have tried to control the Millerpuss population, often through methods which would usually be considered inhumane.

When confronted with a Millerpuss, people are advised to make as much noise as possible, as an attempt to confuse or startle the creature.

The male Millerpussies have a scent which is similar to that of rotting flesh and old dairy products. It is believed that this odour is used to attract female Millerpussies.

The safeguarding of Earth and other worlds from biological cross-contamination (i.e. billionaires with too much time on their hands).

Also known as “planetary protection.” Planetary protection / quarantine “reflects both the unknown nature of the space environment and the desire of the scientific community to preserve the pristine nature of celestial bodies until they can be studied in detail.”

There are two types of interplanetary contamination. Forward contamination is the transfer of viable organisms from Earth to another celestial body. Back contamination is the transfer of extraterrestrial organisms, if such exist, back to the Earth's biosphere.
