Happy Halloween Ghouls and Boogeymen!

In the spirit of happy haunting, I would like to share with you some friends from the animal kingdom who may have a frightening appearance but are actually as harmless as a...well, basking shark?

Basking Shark

Goliath Birdeater

Gharial

Milksnake

Giant African Millipede

Vulture

Manta Ray, or Devilfish (how apropos!)

and last but certainly not least, the Aye Aye from Madagascar.
