Mmmm blood!!

Copped a nice tag last night from a 7 foot female coastal. I startled her and her response was to give me a nice love bite. She is usually very tame but because i picked her up without warning her first she didnt know what was going on. My own fault, and its my first tag from an adult. (just glad i had a few brews under my belt so it didnt hurt as much as it would sober....lol) Here are some pics for you gore lovers!

Nice love bite sherm,

I got tagged by a large female coastal a few weeks ago. Her teeth punctured the vein that runs between the tendon of my thumb and forefinger. Huge haemotoma formed. Had to put a pressure bandage on to stop the bleeding. Didn't take any pics unfortunately. Still a bit sore.

cheers

Jonny

although i'm sure it hurt like hell all the same, i would've expected more damage from an adult.

And no doubt, if she had bitten a regular human being she would have, but this is Sowjya Boy Sherminator in question here!

Nice pic's. I'm impressed. Better not show the wife these pic's as she will never let me get anything larger than a Childreni. My son wants to know "Did you cry". haha I told him no as you had your anaesthetic before hand.
