Beelzebub's Nightmare

The tsetse fly, Glossina morsitans, is a fly (order Diptera) that drinks the blood of animals, including humans. The tsetse fly can carry the protozoa human pathogen Trypanosoma brucei, which causes African sleeping sickness.


When I drew this, I was under the impression that the word tsetse is pronounced set-see, however someone informed me that it was pronounced see-see, well in that case the joke doesn't work. I did look it up, however, and I believe both pronounciations are acceptable. So for the sake of me and my cartoon please say Setsee!
