Around here, we call them asps. DO NOT touch him. All that warm fuzzy stuff contains little barbs of poison that can make you swell shut. I saw one get on my brother's arm when he was a kid. Hurts like all get out, and you can pick it off cause it will get on you. My dad took a newspaper and kinda slid it under the little beast.
When I was about 30, I accidently sat on one. Got me through the jeans on my bum and my whole leg went numb for a couple of hours. Called poison control and they said to take benadryl and go to the ER if I my mouth started swelling.
Leave it alone! Looks cute and hurts like be nice!
