They snap at people!!! Emelie was just pretending to grab him. After he nearly took off my fingers when I tried to get him off the middle of the road... I decided to get my tripod from the car and push him off with it. He snapped and got hold of it hard enough I picked him up with the tripod and flung him into the ditch. They are EVIL. Cool though... you can see the moss growing on his tail.
