Salmonella being one.... Any other damage/injuries sustained being #2... There was a post on another ig board about a young girl being scratched while handling an ig at a herp show (unheard of, I know). While the scratch, in and of itself, was apparently incidental the GRANDMOTHER of the child (not legal guardian) threatened the owner and possibly the herp group with legal action. Never heard anything as far as outcome but, personally, I don't think I'd be able to foot the bill for the insurance rider for this - as nice of an idea as this is....
