When you have misplaced your spinning wheel and knitting needles...you are forced to improvise.
A foot-long tongue that would make Gene Simmons gulp in disbelief.
Yikes, even if it's not poisinonous, I still don't think I'd want that guy taking a bite out of my leg.Coming in hot!! (My dive buddy’s shin was about 2 inches above the upper right corner of this photo…)

At least she's not completely panicing. I always see vidoes of people doing that, and they start yelling and screaming and just completely freaking out when the animal sticks it's head in the car. And the when they do that it drives, because they opened the window and offered it food, and if you do that it's gonna go after the food.
Awwwww, so tiny and cute.
@JD — Definitely! Moray eel bites are nasty… I’ve been lucky so far, but friends of mine say they hurt like a very warm place!
Apparently they’re mostly blind and can only see vague shapes and shadows/changes in light, but they still creep me out when I’m taking photos of them.
There’s one really big one (about 5-7 feet long) that hangs around the YO-257 wreck that we’ve nicknamed ‘Jabba’. When he shows up… we leave.

While I was taking the shot of the eel (above), this big one was on my other side, being all sorts of curious…

Horse brings his girlfriend a snack.
I never realized how HUGE moose are until I saw a video a few months ago of one walking by a road and it was towering above the cars. I thought they were they were the size of horses or cattle, but the one in the video seemed to to be a lot bigger.
Oh, no bison are really dangerous, you do not want to fuck with them.I guess they're harmless as long as you feed them and probably if you are a woman with great "seducing powers"
Found the video
And speaking of hosres, I had some more horsey stuff happen on my bike rides lately.
About halfway through my rides, I take a water break in a church parking lot next to one of the stables, and watch the horses and riders. A couple of weeks ago they moved a couple of new horses into some stalls by the church, and now when I stop one of them, and somtimes both, come over and watch me. They seem pretty friendly, and I would love to go say hi, but there's a waist high wall, dirt road, and a fence between the church and stables, and I don't want to cross over to the stables' property. I went up to the wall this morning, and as soon as they saw me, they both came right up to the fence. I love the coloring of one who almost always watches me, he's mostly white with a bunch of big brown spots. I've already decided If I ever see anyone with them, I'm gonna ask if I can come over and say hi.

That mouse is running a shell game!
Excuse me, but there is a hare in my coffee...
They probably want to make friends with you..... have someone from outside to bring them chocolate bars you know
My favorite horse from the Screen would be Tonto's white horse
Also there's this TV Show I used to watch ... ongoing TV show ..... called Yellowstone with Kevin Costner and Cole Hauser.... they have some wonderful horses there...
