I have access to photos on the web where you can view some bad mishaps with reptiles, but what type of presentation do you need it for? Are you promoting fear of reptiles? If so rethink your project becasue we ave enough problems with people being scared for the wrong reasons...

no of course not!! i love reptiles, especially my tegu. its just kind of a "dark" subject i am working on. art professors love stuff like that.

You should make sure people who view your pix understand that pitbulls can do a fair amount of damage when provoked as can your average housecat (I know because I worked for a vet where I was bitten more then once by a scared feline).
People who are reptile haters, or just your average person who knows nothing about them -- will see photos of someone bleeding from a monitor bite and assume all reptiles are vicious, therefore should be banned---and that's how these extremely stupid laws get passed.
That's why many reptile activists have taken the stand to keep all reptiles out of public view --- this way people have nothing to complain about or be scared of. Kind of like "what they don't see can't hurt US" type mentality.
All that said...off the top of my head without looking anything up---you can check out ProExotic's website and look under NON PE PHOTOS.....you have to sift but there are some pixs there---one of someone who got bit in the HEAD by something quite large.

Pit bulls are awesome dogs. I volunteer for a pit rescue and these dogs come in abused but soooooo friendly. I would get one, two, or ten pits, except I'm only allowed one dog and that slot's filled.

Now cats...I had a 20 pound cat a couple years ago and that guy was a DEMON. I still have scars from him.

I think the P.E. pic with the head injury was caused by croc monitor claws...correct me if I'm wrong.

But you are plastic and so are your brains.

The primate's scream of consonance is a reflection
of his own mind's dissonance.

Sadistic and constantly inflicting a slow demise.
