I just emailed David Fox, and he replied:

It’s a scary monster in the jungle... you never see it. It’s just to add some tension so you try to get out faster.

I don’t think it was picked up as a running gag in other games :-(

Sounds like they half intended to make use of it but never did. Thanks for drawing my attention to it though. In a few years I'll be releasing my own unofficial Zak sequel and if I remember I'll make sure I use that! It's exactly the kind of thing I'll want. I make commercial games, so I won't be able to use the main characters or names for copyright reasons, but I intend to use as many "bit part" characters and locations as I can, so that true fans will recognize it. They can't copyright Mount Rainier or monsters in jungle mazes. :)
