Lions do, but I'm not sure that's what you are looking for.

 Try "The Hulk", as in, "this project is Hulking me", "I'm getting Hulked"
"The Hulk is taking over"

Kudos to Stan Lee

DP,

Yeah, kinda like that. The condition normal here is that the words fail 
us. We know what we mean, just not how to say it.

We need an analogy for a small monster that grows up to be a big 
headache of a monster and to apply it to Project Management. If it is a 
small monster then we need to be able to identify it then stomp all over 
it to make sure it does not get a chance to grow up.
So far Godzilla is where we started but that won't work. Then raccoon, 
then pig. I heard skunk. Maybe anteater? The Anteater Principle of 
Project Management. No, that is more aligned with the idea that if you 
leave a lot of little small things running around loose that someone 
else will come along and suck them all up.

Do SNARKS start out young and cute?
