HA! Maybe you would have been bit, maybe not.... They are not real aggressive, despite the wild stories here!

I think any 'mom' would bite if you put your hand near their babies. That is a good tip though. If my dog succeeds in getting one (real well meaning and loving but DUMB dog), I will keep that playing dead stunt in mind before intervening.
