Are you scared of any animals?

I'm afraid of bees and dogs. My mom had a potentially deadly allergy to bee stings, so I was always scared that I inherited it and would die of a bee stung me. As for dogs, I always thought that they seemed vicious and aggressive. Like someone's walking their dog and I walk by and BARKBARKBARKBARK and they try to run to me. I always thought that they would hurt me. I vastly prefer cute cats

Parasitic insects/Parasites in general. And cockroaches and similar pests.

I would be fine with a single two meter spider, arachnids are cool on their own right. But thousands of cockroaches and worms and stuff you can't keep track of and are so small it's futile to try to fight? You are helpless and at the mercy of the deranged Hive Mind that plays with you.

Really, most of those things can qualify for Eldritch Abominations.

Anything that stings, bites, is poisonous or scratches.

This, for the most part, with wasps at the top of the list by far. However, for some animals, like spiders and snakes, I will observe from a safe distance.

Wasps. Bees not as much since around here they're much more likely to just fly away, but wasps will just outright rush you if you piss them off

I've killed too many Wasps with my bare hands to fear them.

Nah, the big ones are what I don't want to get too close to. Bears, especially grizzly bears, and Mountain Lions.

Hubby isn't a fan of spiders.

For me, it's hard to say, so I would have to think about it.

Not a fan of stink bugs, but it isn't a fear.

Dogs, since I've hated them since I was little... bad experiences with dogs still lead me to hate them today. =/

Aside from that, I'm not particularly scared of bugs or anything of the sort...

One of the dogs that my parents had when I was a kid would attack me at random. I didn't like him.

Also, a dog bit one of my outside cats that I growing up. Don't want to go into details, but yea.

But I still like dogs and I hope to own one eventually.

I somewhat remember going to a house with 2 little girls living there, but to get upstaies you had to go through a dog pen. That might be where my fear of dogs initially came from, but I don't know.

Oh yeah, and horses. Not so much frightened as just... just keep them away from me.

A doberman pinscher bit off my face once, but, for some reason I don't fear them. I didn't even fear the one that bit me after that.

Then again, besides a pit bull trying to rip out my throat, I've pretty much experienced being attacked by dogs, so I know what to expect.

Lions, tigers and bears.

But really, anything poisonous or aggressive.

I'm not really afraid of these, but in some situations, like when it's pitch black and they touch me out of nowhere, spiders, moths etc, make me jump. Otherwise, fine with anything really.

THIS goddamn. We have some outside our house, and there are some very well-placed flowers... placed right around this path to the front door. I always take the long way around because they're ready to tear my shit up...

I guess some breeds of dogs--mostly just pitbulls. I was walking with a couple friends and we walked past this father with his daughter... and a pitbull. It was simply tied to a small pole, and holy fuck it was so pissed at us for walking by. It kept trying to break free.

Then again, this other one found her way to our porch and just stared at our parakeets... She never made a sound, not even when I tried getting her to leave.

Certain spiders too. Generally bold ones, but I'm cool with small ones.

Liopleurodons. Thankfully they're extinct.

I'm not afraid of spiders (had a tarantula), snakes (have a red tail boa), bees or wasps (if you're not afraid, they usually leave you alone), dogs, cats, robotic attack squirrels, chickens after I hit them with the Master Sword a ton of times, lions, tigers, or bears... Oh my!

Yeah, I'm not scared of animals at all!

Bugs, insects and things of that ilk (Bees, spiders, and similar creepy crawlers). Rats as well.

It is fear, disgust and anger mixed together. I just hate them all. I wish I could create a force field around my house and let no insects and pests in here.
