Man-eating menace (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ogre

(Other definitions for ogre that I've seen before include "Giant of folklore who liked to eat humans" , "Jack's giant perhaps" , "Man-eating giant of folklore" , "Fairy tale giant" , "Terrifying monster" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
