my dog cornered one in the backyard the other night, they are nasty little creatures. I don't like having them around because they could kill my chickens or my rabbit.

OMG, I remember coming home from hanging out with friends at all hours of the night and there was this huge one that used to waddle down the street in the wee hours. Always freaked me out.

They have very little teeth and they are scavengers. It is very unlikely they would attack anything, they are very passive. I actually raised 2 of them a long time ago when their Mom was hit by a car.

They are gross. We have them by us, and I get scared when I walk my Chihuahua early in the morning when it is still dark and they are lurking around!
