I know a guy who got his knuckle taken off by one. Nothing to mess with unless its tame.

Do Tokays bite hard ???? Are you kidding ?????????????????
I was helping my friend move his female Tokay (not very big ..about 10 in). All I had to do was hold the bag open when he caught her and shut the bag VERY quick when she was in. He put her in the bag and i closed it around his wrist ready for him to release her ...she ran up his arm onto my hand bit down hard on my thumb knuckle before leaping onto the wall and skating behind a stack of viv's.

After a visit to the hospital and a couple of stitches I decided that I DO NOT LIKE Tokays and have vowed never to let one of the pitbull's in drag anywhere near any part of my anatomy ever again.
