[Odonata-l] Odonata-l Digest, Vol 34, Issue 9

[Andy Brazil]

However, it might not be that easy. I spend some time during the summer 
leading show-n-tell walks where I lead people around a location showing them 
the dragonflies and butterflies, netting them and letting people have 
close-up views.  Got a message last week from one of the bodies I do this 
for saying that from now on I have to carry out a risk-assessment - in 
writing, and store it for two years, and take the names of everyone 
attending in case they sue for injuries received. So what do I put on the 
risk assessment "might be attacked by a rabid butterfly"?
