I know that my working with wolves worries some who know me. In fact, I think it scares the heck out of some relatives and perhaps a few others. Yet, the first real attack I’ve had doing said work happened yesterday, and it wasn’t a wolf. It seems I accidentally stepped into a romantic situation, and the female involved was not happy at all. It seems she had two males entagled with her, so when I walked in and accidentally interrupted things, she struck at me.
Female garter snakes are large (many times larger than the males), and can be quite pissy when interrupted in the snake equivalent of a menage au trois. Thankfully I was wearing my wellies and there was no real damage. In point of fact, snake porn was recorded and an image can be seen on today’s (Sunday) Wolf Park’s Photos of the Day.
