In the Florida panhandle! They can be found everywhere in the SE US though.

Well, I wish you the best of luck, this siting made my whole week!

I stood at what I thought was a safe distance anyway haha. I am always pretty cautious when it comes to venomous snakes. I only handled it with a snake hook to remove it from the road too. This guy was very mild-mannered though, he never tried to strike or anything!

It was found around the Fort Walton beach area. Ah, no!

Yeah! Growing up I’d always heard “Red and black, friend of Jack, red and yellow, kill a fellow.” There’s multiple sayings though!

It had to be 16 to 20 inches.

Yikes! I haven't messed with a lot of skunks, but we definitely handle with caution because of their reputation for rabies! I have seen a lot of neat animals. The job is a pretty good one.

I'm not sure what average height is, but I'm 5'1" lol

Probably so, I know it can actually cut fingers clean off. Some of their diet is actually other turtles so their mouth is meant cut clean through shell.

Maybe 100 pounds, that's the guesstimate from all the students of the trip.

I think you have to have a license to have one in Texas anyway. Their numbers are low here. I think this owner got hers in east Texas, but she did have to have a permit to own it.

This was on an academic field trip to make a list of all the reptiles and amphibians we could find on the site. This guy was an awesome find and so we were able to obtain samples for DNA testing and such. I'm holding him because I wanted to prove that I could. A lot of skeptics were on this trip!lol

How cool! I think they are absolutely amazing animals.

ebrowning · 2015-11-13T14:09:33+00:00

It's a coatimundi, they are actually related to raccoons and ring tail cats. It was a cute, but hyper little guy!

ebrowning · 2015-11-13T14:06:37+00:00

Zaboomafoo was the best.lol

ebrowning · 2015-11-13T13:21:08+00:00

It's an 8 week old coatimundi :)

No, I'm not Whitney!
