muchmorethanm... Posts: 2788	Oct 08, 2008 7:10 PM GMT Quote Sharks! I'd feel so powerless in the water as I wouldnt' be able to swim as fast as they can in order to escape. Once they bite you you're going to be seriously injured or missing limbs. I was just thinking of this today when I got up for some reason. How odd that this post be here.
msw1 Posts: 311	Oct 08, 2008 7:28 PM GMT Quote mountain lions....i like cats (all species) but I often hike alone so when i hear stories of joggers and bikers being attacked here in Cali, i always get a little nervous when i am out hiking. i think last year this bike racer was eaten in san diego county and then the same cat attacked and ripped the face off of this woman who found his body.

Terrified now and would like to do the shark cage thing but have yet to find someone to join me. On land, definitely cougars! I see the damage cats at work can do to me.

allwaysright Posts: 58	Oct 09, 2008 11:16 AM GMT Quote Spiders, Waterbugs, and Ticks cuz they make my skin crawl just thinking about them;and this may sound silly but bigfoot and aliens. The thought of some human like animal / monster that can pop up and snatch you into the woods creeps me out. Aliens becuz i value my personal space and every alien story deals with them violating you and you being nothing more than an object to them. Very creepy stuff.

Pattison Posts: 2016	Oct 09, 2008 12:08 PM GMT Quote Living down Under in Oz. We don't have all that much to worry about. We have a few of the worlds most venomous spiders and snakes, and White Pointers are known to hang at the same beach I do. But nothing that scares the shite out of me. Rats disgust me, but no fear. I love animals. Long to hang with some bears, in the woods, and not the bars.

flieslikeabea... Posts: 68	Oct 09, 2008 1:07 PM GMT Quote Monkeys. Sometimes I work with them (as an animal trainer). They're super smart and can do some amazing things as service animals. But they're incredibly strong for their size; they have sharp teeth and they can become over excited and aggressive in a heartbeat. Two years ago I got six stitches from a bite to the hand from a capuchin monkey; during my training I nearly had my hand crushed by an over-ambitious juvenile orangutan and two years ago I watched another 18 pound capuchin pick up a toilet, and throw it. I still work with them, but I'm alert every second.

Flying cockroaches is scary ass and yes I scream like a girl too when I encounter them..and then run out of the room like a maniac. I'm afraid of bees and their buzzing too..more like a phobia..ever since i've been swarmed by bees during a compass orienteering exercise when I attended the military school...had to jump into the nearest creek...thank gawd there was even a creek there seeing as our platoon were kinda lost..
SinNombre Posts: 356	Oct 09, 2008 1:47 PM GMT Quote Those big fuckin pet store rabbits scare the shit out of me! Not the little, natural bunnies that hop around outside. But I can't even walk past those fuckin mutant rabbits that are in pet stores. Every other animal in there is fine by me...matter of fact I love all off the "creepy-crawlies" but I am definitely not a fan of those monsters. I would have posted a picture, but I am literally getting chills down my spine searching for one. Maybe something happened to me involving rabbits and I've suppressed it in my memory. Lol.

fogos Posts: 199	Oct 09, 2008 2:15 PM GMT Quote nice to see a respect for wildlife in all its forms. gives some perspective. basically your ass is grass in the "jungle" so to speak. Most scary situation was with a pair of coyotes wasn't sure what the plan was , I just backed off. took a different way.
Hidden/Deleted Member	Oct 09, 2008 2:21 PM GMT Quote I dive warm waters and wear a 1mil shortie wet suit, so I have a lot of exposed skin. Sharks, Moray Eels and Barracudas don't alarm me although I'm cautious with them. It's those damn jellyfish that alarm me. I never panic but on one dive I noticed that after the dive I only had 300 pounds of air left. I rarely go through it so fast but an encounter with a huge school of jellyfish got me using it up fast. Still, the most dangerous situations I've encountered diving has been the water itself, those currents can be killers.

DClifterguy Posts: 198	Oct 09, 2008 5:20 PM GMT Quote Actually thats not true at all. There are plenty of animals out there who kill each other for other reasons. Plenty of animals will kill the male offspring to prevent a rival etc. Infanticide is not uncommon in the wild.

I dated a guy who had some dragon looking monster roaming the house and wasn't told until I sat down on the couch and turned to my left to see this fucking gargoyle looking at me. I wasn't a happy date but tried my best not to lose my shit too much.

Oh, and we have these things called Javelinas here in Arizona, they sort of look like a big hairy pig or boar and they're mean -- Aaaaaaaaaah! I can testify that these wild pigs are MEAN as hell...but they are chicken too. I was out at one of my favorite spots (down by the river) a week or so ago and it was at dusk. Out walking around with only my gym shorts on...this time....I could hear some pig like noise, grunting and stuff in the bushes and they were drinking from stagnate pool of water....I knew that these were the famed Javelinas. I decided to get cute and I picked up a BIG STICk and ROCK. I then tossed the rock into the bushes and WOW...did I hear screams and noises like never before...LOL....these nasty creatures got completely freaked out and scattered like crybabies. I figured on meeting one face to face and sure enough he came right at me. So I ran right towards him with my big stick swinging and hit him on the head. He stumbled to the ground and bolted off like a big fried ham! That's all they are good for really. Christmas Ham. They are good....LOL

I'd climbed up and between two large cages to get a closer look while my mom was distracted with my brother. i'll never forget it. a monkey ran up to me, grabbed my arm and squeezed it while screaming maniacally. i had black and green and purple bruises for weeks after. they are unnerving. they are so intelligent and yet, totally insane. your story is chilling. i could never do what you do.

BioMatty Posts: 413	Oct 13, 2008 8:47 PM GMT Quote Spiders. I swear they are intelligent - it's what makes them such perfect killers. Make no mistake - if a spider could kill you...it would. Every move they make is such calculated evil, it's obscene. ugh, my god I hate spiders.

gymguy2k Posts: 43	Oct 13, 2008 9:18 PM GMT Quote Spiders, but really BIG, hairy ones in particular. I can't even look at pics of or see a tarantula on TV. Hell on earth would be to have one crawling on me. My whole 8 day (wonderful) trip to Arizona 10 years ago was focused on whether I'd see one or if there'd be one in my hotel room!!! Just the thought of one scares the living shit right out of me.

cjcscuba1984 Posts: 252	Oct 13, 2008 9:38 PM GMT Quote Sharks are awesome... I almost became a Marine Biologist--I had wanted to be one for over a decade... since I saw JAWS in 2nd grade. Seriously now, humans scare me the most. It some ways we are a disgusting, hateful, out-of-control parasite-like species to this planet. Earwigs and spiders are a close second and third.

NickoftheNort... Posts: 846	Oct 13, 2008 9:58 PM GMT Quote Sharks and ticks; the first due to Jaws and a developed fear of bodies of water that I don't have control over and the second due to the horror of the unseen invasive. Cockroaches disgust me if they catch me off-guard; otherwise, I think I'm able adjust to the situation. In most situations though, I tend to temper whatever fears I have by visualizing having to kill the "other" creature (such as going over distraction tactics and potential weaknesses, and going full-on, including Tysoning it wherever and however the situation requires).

Not a big fan of bugs either... <.< I know is kinda off topic but I would LOVE to have a tiger cub. Or other large pretty kitty- jaguar, leopard, panther, etc. Except lion. Not a lion fan. Pretty yes, cute and cuddly, not so much.
