Brown snake. It was checking the chook pen for mice and eyeballed me when I squatted next to it. Then it negotiated an understanding by displaying its fangs, sideways so I could note their size. After that it turned and moved halfway to me, eyes fixed on mine. I stepped back one pace, done deal, snake wins. She slowly turned and ignored me and went back to the mouse hole.

Asking for freediver- does it taste like chicken? I know I should probably read my own thread but does anyone else like humans? They are a very broad range of breeds I know but I will rate them in the top ten on my list.

I assume it's nothing like our possums?

It tastes like a big guinea pig.

People who can't distinguish between etymology and entomology bug me in ways I cannot put into words.

Maybe I misunderstood the meaning of the topic.

I just wrote those animals that I like.

I do not eat these animals and do not keep them as pets.

We don't have possums. They probably represent only a very distant analogue to squirrels.

In those parks where people often offer them food (mostly nuts), squirrels descend from trees and run closer to people.

So you know what a small guinea pig tastes like? Shocked
