    Bite from a 6-foot boa

    It has been a while since I've been tagged, and last night I guess Zalma thought it was about time I was re-inducted to the bite club. The last time she bit me she was a good 2 or 3 feet smaller, and it's amazing to see how much her jaw span has increased (as can be seen on my forearm)!



    After cleaning


    The culprit

    Awesome, haha
    Herps are cool.

    One of the attractions of outdoor pursuits activities for many people is that life is reduced to the barest essentials, and in the process a more intimate connection to the natural world is established. Food that would be trashed or fed to the dog at home tastes wonderful, a cup of murky water is much appreciated, and after a few days, even a thin sleeping pad can feel like a comfortable mattress as tired bones are able to rest after a hard day's work.

    Of course! As soon as she bit me, my thoughts were: "Huh. Now where did I put my camera?"

    No; for as many times as I've been bitten, I am still surprised by how little those barbed teeth actually hurt.
