: ahem, filthy, you forgot an important one. I quote:

: "Pour some drinking alcohol (rum, brandy, scotch, etc.) into their mouth. Try to aim their head down to the floor or at least sideways so the liquor doesn't flow into their lungs in case their glottis (the valve opening at the back of their tongue)."

: This is from M Kaplan's page on iguana bites (and other reps) found at:

: About the teeth....I've been bit a few times and never saw any teeth stuck in me. Perhaps they were more along the lines of nips instead of bites altho I bled pretty good. OK I admit it was more just barely breaking the skin but it felt BIG *smile* Those teeth could be about to shed so that's why so many came out BUT I wonder if it is a matter of the poor conditions it was kept in prior to coming to live with you.

: ....now i can think no more as my youngest boy is in here bugging me....if i only had a nice long tail with which to whip LOL
