Found one of these on the floor of the car:

Ah yes... I met one of these once. I was at the zoo with a boyfriend... When it came flying towards us he shoved me in front like I was some kind of shield to protect him for the aliens.

He's an ex now. :)

Hehe. They *are* pretty scary. They make this awesome squeaking sound when you agitate them.
