Rodent Bite
I have to get a anti-rabies shot today. All thank’s to this naughty rascal who decided to bite me after playing with me for an hour yesterday. This creature is the Indian Gerbil, a norturnal animal of the Indian forests.

Wow! Great Shot.
At least you got bitten by a wild creature, this morning an aquarium fish (an auratus) nipped Tarique’s hand when he was trying to trim the aquatic plants
I thought it was mouse :p
When did this happen? Just yesterday you were in Forum.
Seriously looks like a mouse at fast glance!
Any plans of trekking the Sahayadris !

Nice pic
Hey, I am Bindu. Relatively new to LJ. Nice photo.
Looks like you are venturing out in the forests with all the small and big.
I wish I was in your shoes, atleast for a while…
P.S: would like to add you as a friend. Any hassles?
Re: Nice pic
On LJ anyone can add anyone as a friend without concent
*salutes*
I sure hope the bro is watching the right person and not me:))
Ouch!, take care.
Unless the technology has advanced…
An anti-rabies shot(s) is supposed to be no small ordeal, and carries a risk in itself. Best of luck with it. If you still have the gerbil, I would definitely have it tested to see if it is rabid, and only get the shots yourself if it is. From what I’ve heard, it’s not a big deal to test if an animal is rabid — you shouldn’t have to harm it except for poking it with a needle to draw a little blood. Anyway, if rabies shots are still what they were ten years ago, then you have a painful few days ahead. Get well soon!
Re: Unless the technology has advanced…
The actual bite was small and I did not bleed either. So I think it’s pretty ok. I just want to be safe coz I play with monkey;s a lot too.
Re: Unless the technology has advanced…
The most appropriate response to this spectacular photograph is “Annnwwwwwww”. Maybe even to add a “tho cyooot”.
Beautiful. I think it’s fantastic to see the joy in both big and small. Glad that you are.
Size matters not eh…
