I know the "professional" wrestling league is called WWE now, but I can't help but remember it as the WWF from when I was a kid. With that, it was funny to read parts of that article... as in the following:
"This could be the first time in more than a century that a new carnivore has been discovered on the island," said the WWF in a statement.
Couldn't help but imagine a scene where Macho Man Randy Savage, standing in the middle of a thick forest in his old wrestling get-up, was talking to a journalist about the new creature. Or Snuka saying that from up on a treebranch... and then slamming into the journalist with his signature handsigns out.

Its kind of cute despite the "kitty-type thing that eats flesh" aspect.
