Definitely Keep: For Darwin's Eyes
Normally we require a write-up, but in this case all we really need are the links you gave us (thanks for also sending us a translated version). This pretty much confirms what we suspected would happen to this fellow. My guess is that this incident will not only win a DA 9now confirmed), but probably make the next edition of the DA book series! Thanks!
