[Paddington Bear] Why does Millicent think killing and taxiderming Paddington will bring her wealth and fame? The British public don't seem to view Paddington as any different to a human child.

In the 2014 film, Paddington Bear, taxidermist Millicent Clyde repeatedly tries to capture Paddington, a sapient Peruvian Bear, so she can taxidermy his copse and become famous.

However throughout the film the general public seem to be well aware of Paddington's existence, to the extent that they don't seem to be fazed by a talking bear cub and even treat Paddington no different to a human child. I'm assuming that if Paddington's corpse suddenly appeared on display in the national history museum it would not be one of the greatest scientific discoveries, but rather one of the most horrific crimes in British history.

So is Millicent just a mentally deranged butcher trying to skin and taxidermy a kid, or does she legitimately believe that killing a sapient bear cub (who is acquainted with london's police btw) is her ticket to a life of fame and fortune.

The Sapient Peruvian Bear, when active, exerts a mild memetic effect causing any other sapient organism to perceive it as equivalent to a member of their own species, despite knowing that it is in fact a bear, and not to notice anything abnormal about the situation. 

Some individuals are, for unknown reasons, partially or entirely immune to this effect. Ms. Clyde either does not see Paddington as equivalent to a human child, or *does*, but notices that this is strange. The latter would be more likely, since most humans would be reluctant to harm any sapient organism, regardless of genetics; a creature with the power to manipulate one's own sense of reality, however, would be quite likely to inspire a homicidal, or rather ursicidal, response. 

Presumably, upon Paddington's death, the memetic effect would cease, at which point Paddington would appear to be simply a dead bear. Ms. Clyde could still be condemned for the murder of a sapient being, but would perhaps not inspire as much instinctive horror as the murderer of a human child with Paddington dead and his memetic power broken.
