The newspaper reported that Doctor Xia Shu had ventured alone onto Devil Island to study its ecology and survived there for a full year.
She had beaten a horned gorilla whose bones were ninety times stronger than a human's to death with her bare hands. She had kicked a rampaging giant-tusked elephant to death and slain a wolf king while surrounded by its pack, frightening the rest away.
