A few examples over the years..
One, right ear almost torn in half with protruding cartilage, BT bite, cause someone drunk walking backwards and smacking the poor lizard in the head and almost falling on me, resulting in a single quick bite.
Two, left hand, 2 fingers and thumb smashed with tooth holes from finger tip through finger nails, to first knuckle and beyond on another, another BT.
Three, thumb tip smashed, tooth hole piercing from both top and bottom, teeth cross over around the bone, with tooth hole across thumbnail, 1 month with the thumb glued together. Flaviargus.
Ive had several finger smashers, and hand clamp-ons, some that had to be carefully pryed loose, some that hung on and released almost an hour later, they have patience.
I can gladly say that I havent gotten bit in a long time, over a year or two.
I dont count the bosc bites they typically made me jump, or the smaller nile bites, timor, ackie (one), etc because these seemed to heal overnight, or within no time at all, as well didnt hurt like these others in particular.
