We used to have to wear gauntlets usually used for laying barbed wire fences when picking the dammed things back up again! They bite and smell! Of course we weren't allowed to kill, cook and eat them in anyway whatsoever, them being a protected species and all, so it would be pointless me commenting that they tasted delicious!
