This is just so strange. I've wrestled alligators and swam with sharks and been pounced upon by leopards and had physical interactions with full-grown lions, leopards, bears, hyenas, wolves, cheetahs, eagles and countless snakes and scorpions and tarantulas. I've been bitten by boa constrictors, hyraxes, monitor lizards, turtles, squirrels, snookum bears, and even small lions and leopards. But the only thing that has made me need serious medical attention is a bite from a tiny spider that I didn't even notice and had nothing to do with my museum or my work!
