speaking of shipping box labeling... my redfoot arrived as a wee month-old baby in a box labeled "live harmless reptile." knowing how some people could feel about the "r-word" ("OH MY GAWD IT MIGHT BE A SNAAAAAKE!", i'd almost be afraid to use it myself, in case someone heard a noise inside, freaked out and dropped it or something out of an irrational fear response. at least "turtles" are generally perceived as slow and therefore pretty harmless.
