[Leica] best leica lens for photographing bigfoot

Hi Folks,
  I'm going to be spending 18 days in the woods in Oregon as part of the 
PNWMAP (Pacific Northwest Musk Ape Project) documenting the homonid known 
technically referred to by scientist as Gigantanthropus but alternatively by 
lay-people as "Sasquach", "Skunk Ape", "Musk Ape" and, of course, Bigfoot.  
In meetings with the Bigfoot Field Research Deployment team, one of the 
things we discussed is that most images of this shy and smelly creature are 
not very sharp. It's for this reason that I've procured a grant for 
purchasing a Leica camera and a lens. I want to use a single lens to avoid 
the horror of being in the process of changing lenses when a Yeti emerges 
from a bedding path in the undergrowth and stalks with his loping determined 
stride across the narrow path in front of me to vanish rapidly again in the 
dense foilage. With just one lens, I can always be at the ready to capture 
the photographic evidence which will advance our studies and knowledge of 
this noble beast.

  My question is, givin the moist enviornment that Woods Devil likes to live 
in, what Leica camera will be the most robust in those circumstances and 
what lens will be the sharpest and most useful overall? -- taking into 
consideration that the Yowie may come, screaming and bellowing, into my 
field of view from a great distance or may even charge me, suddenly, in 
close quarters if he is enraged by the smell of my after shave. I want to be 
prepared for everything. Generally a herbavore, Old Yellow-Top is thought to 
be an opportunistic carnovoire, so the camera must also be able to withstand 
a possible, though extremely unlikely attack by one of Americas last giant 
apes.

  Thanks for your time and expertise. Also, if anyone has photographs 
they've taken or reports of sightings, I'd love to hear them.
