Drongo

(n.) A passerine bird of the family Dicruridae. They are usually black with a deeply forked tail. They are natives of Asia, Africa, and Australia; -- called also drongo shrikes.

I take your point but there is no need to insult the planet's wild creatures by using their names to cover the few sad cases of humanity that do actually cause these problems.
