Voracious. Did you ever think about the wolves in fairytales?  I mean, an ordinary wolf might eat a pig if he was hungry, but he wouldn’t blow down three houses to get at it.  And even if he was starving, he wouldn’t gobble up a Grandma in one bite.  The wolves in these stories aren’t just hungry or famished, they’re absolutely voracious—excessively hungry, insatiable.  So maybe the real moral of these stories is, feed the wolves! Keep them well-fed, and they’ll leave you alone.  Voracious: extremely hungry, insatiable.
