how was handling it? was it relatively docile?

It was flighty at first - when I spotted it at my feet it was already on the go. Was able to hook & tail it to walk it the few steps back to the open parking area, and after it crawled around a bit it settled down some. When I ditched the stick and started handling it, a few times the bitey end came back up in my direction but never in an aggressive manner - more focused on just trying to get away. I think I probably could have straight up free handled it without getting bit…but I damn sure wasn’t going to find out.

I briefly attempted to tail the pygmy, but that lil fricker was having none of it.
