Any animal.
Tiger in India.
She did nothing violent. I was watching from a tour 4wd from about 40m away. She was taking a drink on the other side of a creek for about 30s. Then lifted her head, looked at us and turned and loped up the steep hill behind her.
The effortless power of her acceleration of a body that big.
I was once hiking a mountain in New Mexico, and had a standoff with a vicious, off-leash and in-tact dog. I tried slowly backing down, but it kept advancing any ground I gave it. The owner for some reason refused to come down off the mountain to get his dog, until I yelled at him I would bash the dog’s head in, and he’d still be on the hook for any injuries I sustained while doing it.
.
I took on a big stray that looked like a German Shepherd/Great Pyrenees mix that attacked my dog last year. He had my dog by the throat and my dog bit his lip.
I had never seen dogs raise up, locked together like these two did. They were on their hind legs locked by the flesh in each other’s mouths.
I ran in like a cave man to intervene, fully expecting to get bit up. I tried to pry this dog’s mouth open with my bare hands, but all my might wasn’t enough and he crushed into my hands/fingers. I could hear the sound of what I can best describe as crunching sounds and chomping gristle.
That got my flight/fight fully kicked in, and then I pried his mouth open like it was nothing. I held him suspended by his open mouth and comanded my dog to release his lip, which he did.
I then sort of suplexed and wrestled the dog until mine was able to get to safety. My crimson red blood all over this snow white dog was so surreal.
Here are some photos of my injuries. My finger was fractured and I have scar tissue in that finger and on my tendons in my left hand, which causes some trouble. Could’ve been a lot worse. My right middle finger still causes me a bit of pain, but I can push thru it to play piano/video games/type. No regrets. I love my dogs more than myself and I’d do it again in a heartbeat.
Curious, what kind of dog was it?
Mutt. Big enough to do some damage. If I had to make a guess, it may have been a shepard mix.
In person or generally?
Because the most horrifying thing I’ve seen but not in person was a deer eating human corpses on a body farm.
A body farm is a scientific study where corpses are left out, exposed to the elements, and the decomposition is measured over time.
If you ever read the news and saw a story about a body being recovered and the officials estimated that they died x months ago, that’s because of body farms…
But then this happens (NSFL pictures):
Why did I open this comment thread
Invading Ukraine
At this point, invading Palestine is scarier
I didn’t know it was a competition…
Join the fascism club now! Every month we decide which poor sovereign nation to annoy the fuck out of. Join the fascism club today with a low low price of a nuclear fleet!p
Seeing two horses fighting. The sheer size of them is enough to scare me, but getting aggresive biting and kicking was something else.
