rule #1 with wild critters, never trust them! even the mild manner critters can hurt you. Famous last words, Oh they can't do that or they never do that. if you don't respect their abilities, you may pay the price. I have seen very aggressive poisonous snakes, rattlesnakes (especially the ground rattlers), copperheads and cottonmouths but I have also seen a lot of them do everything to get away from you 1st. I have been sitting on the ground turkey hunting and had copperheads crawl within a foot of my foot as they moved to another area. Yeah, I was keeping a very close eye on them but they weren't interested in me. Been kicked very hard by deer and even head butted. I watched a very live turkey kick a man's butt all over the place before he could get away from it, so much for a live hand catch...laughed my butt off. my friend had large deep scratches all over his arms and face. I also watched a kid grab a feeding squirrel, he thought that since he had been feeding it, he could...nah.
