FOOTNOTES:
==========
(1) This is based on the Girsa that appears in our Gemara. According to the old Girsa cited by the Lechem Mishnah (Hilchos Ta'aniyos 2:7; this also seems to have been the Girsa in Rashi's Gemara) which reads, "*Iy Nami* ba'Sadeh ba'Yom, Meshulachas" -- "Alternatively, if it was in the field during the day, it is Meshulachas" -- even if it was seen in the field during the day and it hid, nevertheless it is considered Meshulachas. This implies that if it was seen in the city, it is considered Meshulachas even when seen at night.
(2) This is not written explicitly in the Gemara, but it does not seem that there should be any difference between day and night with regard to this.
(3) Similarly, if it ascended a rooftop or took a baby from a crib and ate him, even if there were not 2 people there, it is considered Meshulachas, as explained in the Beraisa.
(4) It is also Meshulachas if it killed 2 and ate *none*. Regarding a case where it killed one person and did not eat him, see Insights.
