Carnivorous digible (Dirigible horribilis) is a species of self-aware dirigible.
It is a grazing ruminant airship, neither carnivorous nor horrible.
The term carnivous, and the Latin name Dirigible horribilis, are humorous irony, probably Edward Lear's doing.
Fiction cross-reference
Aerial Ship reports sighting of "dirrigibelli horribelli" - probably the Carnivorous dirigible.
Vostok-1 descent module fears nothing, has nothing to fear from Carnivorous dirigibles.
