Who else thinks this little beastie's 'face' looks like the Predator from

The last trip I made in the Philippines, Guido Poppe captured a similar
creature for a researcher who requested a freshly preserved one for work she
was doing.  Guido made it very clear that the thing was known to be capable
of a nasty bite.  It looked rather sinister, that I can tell you all.

I would be interested in seeing anatomical drawings of its jaws.
