Gravid female
This is the first one that's bitten me. I've had a few coil up and strike so I let them be, but of all the ones I've actually handled (a dozen or so), this was the first. And it was one of those painful "latch on and gnaw" bites that never ends.
Nice Matt, lots of guys say they have been never bitten by a garter, I have many times and think they are liars or never handled many?
