That they do, really happy smiling critters, aren't they?

Damn Papa,
You have some big ones lol. I thought you had hunted and killed that creature. And I started thinking " holy sh@t , what a second is it playing dead". And sure enough it was. That takes nerves of steel to do that .They are just soo intimidating looking. I grew up in Tennessee and had them in our backyard for many years. I remember a guy in my HS named Ross Hannah ( his uncle was Jack Hannah) caught one on the side of the road. Tied it to the back of his bumper in school parking lot for everyone to see. It was hissing big time. Scary stuff lol

Well I think they look cute enough untill they show teeth :)
