[Wrasse]

*shrug* to raise a shoulder/shoulders.

When my wild carpet (Skinny Snake) wants to be left alone, he does it too. Touch him and his body where you touch sort of 'heaves' up and down, as if to shrug you off. I just tell him to stop with the bluff rubbish and I handle him anyway.

Mine are all sooks though, he is the only one with attitude and even then, so far, he has been all bluff and a sook when handled.
