    One day I came home and some loose shitbulls were defending my front porch. This was before I carried a 38.

      Dogs are all I ever have trouble with, wild animals have infinitely more sense and will avoid you if they can. Dogs on the other hand are completely insane and their insanity is reinforced by insanity of their owners. Every encounter I have with them is pretty much a day ruined.

        Why? What happens to make dogs attack you?

        I've been around them my entire life and have rarely had a problem. I still get along fine (better even) with dogs around. All you need to do is look it in the eyes and then blink slowly, then look again. If the dog does the same, you're friends for life. This also works for cats.

    Couple of coyotes before the break of dawn coming off of killing a goose. They tried to stand their ground for just a second but they're pretty easy to run off. Still gave us both a startle because it was a bit foggy and still dark so we kinda stumbled into one another and we're only maybe 15 paces off when we saw one another. Goose still in mouth.

    I was camping under the stars and woke up to a deer licking my back. I think she was looking for minerals.

      Adorable even thought I'm scared of deer, they're so jumpy and unpredictable.
      I walked in a pitch black wood with no working lights an autumn evening, no moon and even star light didn't penetrate the canopy.
      It was pretty dumb to have walked in there so little prepared during daylight.
      Was walking completely blind feeling my way through the trail when I feel a distinct scent.
      I hear a deer scream no more than a step away from me and suddenly in my blind state, hearing was magnified incredibly, just hear a whole bunch of them stand up all around me and begin stampeding like crazy in all directions and I was in the midst of it.
      Even felt the wind of them passing me, I doubt they saw much either.
      That time I really got scared thinking any second now I'll get bodyslammed.
      I was fine but felt abit guilty crashing their sleep like that afterwards, they must've been hella spooked by some rando man suddenly trying to cuddle up in their bed middle of night.

    i was walking through the woods one cold late autumn day when I decided to go a bit off trail and follow an old and overgrown abandoned logging trail. By the looks of it barely anyone goes there, the grass was more than knee-high. I was enjoying the peace and tranquility of being alone next to some trees when i saw some dark dotty things moving in the distance. Now I'm an older fella and my eyesight ain't what it used to be so i was straining to make out what it was from a distance. Upon closer inspection, they seemed to be wild boars, very common here in chechia. My first instinct was to hide behind a tree and keep an eye on them, and in retrospect that seems like a stupid idea cause if they had noticed me i better had run away. Anyway i peeked around the side of the tree and they were minding their own business, doing pig stuff and i don't know if they see better than they hear or if their sense of smell is the most important one but whatever the case they didn't see me so i just turned back. At the time i only had a hiking stick with me so i would have been fricked if the alpha male started charging at me

      should have just made some noise, they would have run off.
      Hiding from boars is moronet, should they get closer and then get spooked they might charge out of desperation and fear

    stag in rut. charged me in the middle of the night. fled up a hunting stand and it went off.
    Otherwise the boars here are pretty fearless and stand their ground, but they usually don't charge.

    I had a bobcat hiss at me and act like it was about to kick my ass once.
    I was fishing and got to a spot where there was no bank on the creek, so I climbed up to some adjacent railroad tracks to walk around. A bobcat strutted out onto the tracks at about 30 yards away and stared at me. Her kittens bounced out of the bushes and onto the tracks behind her. I took some pictures of her and waited for them to clear off. After about 30 seconds, she took a few steps towards me and let out a nasty-sounding hiss. I started walking backwards away from her, deciding that no fish was worth getting my ass kicked by a bobcat.
    I felt a bit like a pussy for letting a 20 pound animal bully me off the creek, but I imagine that fighting a bobcat would be like fighting a whirlwind of claws and teeth. I still can’t believe she wanted to fight rather than running away.

        I mean that bobcats are some of the most skittish animals around. I’ve seen a couple dozen and all of them, including the ones with kittens, have turned and ran as soon as they saw me. These aren’t grizzly bears we’re talking about here. The normal instinct for bobcats is to run and fight as a last resort. It’s unusual for a wild animal 1/10th the size of a person to act aggressively under any circumstances, unless they’re cornered, which these bobcats weren’t.

          She had babies, they can't run away from some huge beast like you so her only choice was to set a boundary with you directly.
          Basically telling you she'll sacrifice her life knowing you can kill her easily but the trade-off is a world of pain for you.
          Maybe you could perceive it as aggressive but I see it as defensive.
          Clearly it worked, she took charge of the situation, you got the message and the outcome was the best possible where nobody got hurt.

          Many humans act completely moronic socially with other animals by ignoring social cues and boundaries that's why situations arise where they get hurt by wild animals who'd normally never consider touching you.
          Not saying you're like that, it's what I keep seeing all the time personally.

          Like one local guy here from jogging club setting up check-points, he sees a bear on trail and instead of having etiquette to stop and assess the situation he ignores bearmom completely and just continues running toward her probably thinking she'll move aside.
          Bearmom had a cub and she has no choice, cub is not fast runner like some wienery 80kg human.
          She pushed him down and nips him in the butt, not even enough to make him bleed mind you she's not a savage.
          Jogger runs to newspaper and cries about savage wild dangerous animals almost killing him...
          These ppl are super autistic when it comes to interaction with other animals.

            Has there ever been report of someone being hurt by a bobcat that wasn't cornered in the back of a cage? I never heard of that shit, babies or no. Even a blackbear has potential to run away from her cubs(wouldn't test it tho)

    an adult bear would have fricked me up and stolen my food. An adult human would have scared the bear. But this bear was at the same point in his bear life as i was in mine, taking his first unsure steps into the loneliness of adulthood while still missing his family, still wanting to play, and not yet having learned that you frick people over or you get fricked over in life. So we just met for a few minutes.

    first i thought there was a loose cow smelling my tent but it was a moose that ran away soon as i emerged from my tent

    my best wake up call was when i was canoeing and sleeping on a small island in the middle of nowhere
    there were atleast 10 ducks circling around my tent making noise and trying to walk on top of the weird green sphere
    i must have spent around 15 minutes just enjoying the moment when morning sun made moving duck shadows across my tent and thinking if i should grad one for dinner, i never did eat any of them but i remember them funny bastards always

    Walking home one night, came across a lynx, it didn't give a shit and walked right past me, close enough that I could have kneed it in the face.

    In Peru we set up camp and a heard of llamas decided to investigate and trash the camp and tents when we spooked them coming out.

    Thailand we came across a wolves den, throughly unintended, they made their presence known and we backed off slowly. No doubt they could of took us but fortunately for us they were just being territorial.

    Chased by a badger after it spotted me feeding its cub. I thought it was just the cub, didn't realise mommy was present.

    Had a Baskin shark nudge our boat, not threatening directly but it could have easily sunk us.

      Wild animals aren't stupid, they know if they frick up it's death. It's better to avoid a fight then risk it unless you're fighting for survival (food/offspring).

      Domesticated animals are more risky, they get used to care and know if they frick up there's a safety net.
