Nature & Animals What Animal Frightens You the Most?

I once got in a fight against a pitbull at a gas station in Oakland, 100% true story, I will literally beat the shit outta any animal walking the Earth
So you're saying that you're "game bred"?
 
Grizzly Bears - I don't go on hikes because of them and attacks seem to be more often nowadays.
 
I have traveled to Southeast Asia many times and every time I see one of these indoors it is always as if it was the first time I had seen one. It has given me shivers and cold sweats so that it felt as if I had grown a few gray hairs from the fear.

It's a combination of their disgusting appearance and speed that makes me run away. Truly a creature that should be eradicated and no one would miss it.

It's grizzly bears for me too. I stopped camping in tents because of my fear.

And yes the grizzly population has increased so attacks are way up. It's crazy the amount of grizzly attacks that have occurred in 2024.

They are true monsters. Nothing makes you completely safe. Bear spray works pretty well if the bear hasn't entered attack mode yet. And guns can work, but it takes a lot of shots before the bear stops. One recent attack had 2 guys shoot the bear 27 times before it finally stopped attacking. That's insane.

And there are many attacks where the bear comes out of the brush so fast he gets you before you even have a chance to pull out your bear spray or gun.

Truly modern day monsters. I love the forest and mountains but it's hard for me to fully relax because I'm always in grizzly country.
 
Years ago, the last time I went to a zoo, I walked by the tiger enclosure and made eye contact with the tiger. Even though I knew it was behind plexi glass and couldn't hurt me, it triggered something primal in my brain and I froze for a split second. It must been what our ancestors felt when they ran into saber tooth tigers.
That happened to me too!

As Nick Diaz would say, I ain't no bitch, so I've never been scared of an animal that's in a cage and can't get to me.

But this tiger... It was behind a chain link fence and it looked right into my eyes and lowered its head and started walking towards me like I was dinner. For a split second I forgot the fence was there and actually experienced a moment of terror. It was fucking intense. Like my primal caveman instinct just locked me up.

walking sticks. quite possibly my earliest memory is being scared shitless when this odd looking stick I touched started touching me back. Been freaked out by those things ever since.
 
What about Whale Sharks or them old fuckers up in Ice Land… those guys seem pretty chill.
Whale sharks are chill as hell. I got smacked in the ass once by one swimming by me.
 
Took me awhile to think of my answer for this but I guess it's Snakes especially a Cobra can u imagine that thing staring you in the face??? No fucking thank you.

<{ByeHomer}>
 
lol, guess i wouldn't survive out in the wild, if something as small as a bunny can ruin me.

she's not a bad bun though, she's just acting on instincts. bunnies are very territorial.
I have been around a few peeps that had Rabbits and they are always skiddish as fuck the rabbits I mean. I'm not sure they are meant to be pets. tbh get a cat..
 
I think your bigger fear is asking for help. It's a fucking cobra, no shame in asking for help.
"it's a fucking Cobra" lol

Dude think about it Snakes have no arms and no legs and they can still fucking end you in a matter of seconds. That shit is terrifying.

eh, i love having rabbits. theyre litter trained house buns so you get to see their confidence grow and personality shine. they're pretty much like cats tbh, cats with the added bonus of chewing everything you own lmao.

I feel like it also has something to do with the forest fires and the displacement of their normal territory.
 
I have a list-

Snakes but the big constrictors scare me a lot more than the venomous fuckers….those big squeezey fuckers can be crushing you for like two days before you go

Bears both Polar & Grizzly topping this chart

Hippos- watch a video of 1 chasing a boat and never sleep soundly again

Big Cats with Mountain lions topping this list because I’m more likely to run into one of them then the more exotic non-usa ones and because they pounce from behind and go for the neck

Box Jelly Fish- floating nearly lifeless blobs that can kill you

Blue Ringed Octopus- Tiny, Cute, Deadly..hang around in shallow water tide pools waiting to be petted…. Mom Dad don’t touch it, it is evillllll!!!!!!

Sharks- of course the great white should be the scariest but if a really huge one hit me from the deep and I didn’t know it was coming and it severed me in two killing me instantly, that might not be the worst way to go. I mean would you rather that or sit on a fentanyl drip in a hospital as cancer gnaws you to skin and bone? least your feeding a big fish instead of big Pharma when you go. But the Bull shark actually scares me more than the whites because you’d see them coming, they maul you so it would take a while to finish me off, and these sneaky fuckers can go in fresh water……so far none have been found in swimming pools but they’re probably working on getting in those too.

Orcas- Intelligent cooperative pack hunters that are now crippling boats just for fun. These fuckers eat blue whales and great whites but sometimes only the liver of the shark because fuck it I just wanted to snack on the tasty bits and that sandpapery skin isn't to my liking….

But numero uno on my list by far is the Saltwater Crocodile- Fuckers are big, merciless, can come up on land to grab you, can run faster than you can, have no emotions, soul, heart, or weaknesses…..and now there are reports that these cruel devils are going out in the water, waving their arms to look like a drowning person and luring out bystanders trying to help.. Then death roll time, then begin waving those arms again……
