Had this occured in England, we would have preceeded the slaying of the basilisk with a full half hour briefing on health and safety to make sure the slaying complied with all UK regulations on safety in the work place.

They sounds like terror-chickens to be honest.

Now whenever a kooky problem comes up at work I’m going to ask if we’ve tried lobbing weasels at it! For every disease a cure indeed.

I was literally reading about this an hour ago, eerie. I also found out the basilisk isn't the only thing weasels can kill. "The Ojibwe believed that the least weasel could kill the dreaded wendigo by rushing up its anus." I suppose that explains the stink.
