What animal are you most afraid of and why?

[Rob!]

I want to find out what animal is the most terrifying to the people of TIBB. For me it's a close one with spiders which I detest but I think my biggest fear is snakes. I am petrified of them - not to the extent that I can't look at pictures of them but I'm really weary around films of them. For me, it's the way they strike, the fact that loads of them can ****ing kill you and the really ****ed up way they dislocate their jaws just to eat.

Release your animal phobias people - share :worship:

[Black Dagger]

Definitely rats. Rats or crocodiles. I'm fine with the other conventional phobia animals.

[Rob!]

We'd work as a married couple Lucas - you get rid of the spiders, I'll get rid of the crocodiles :clap1:

Crocodiles are understandable but what is it about mice and rats that you don't like?

[Black Dagger]

Slay <3.

They are just hairy and ugly and their tails creep me out and if they ever get into the house and make noises that's quite terrifying as well.

[Ninastar]

its just bugs I hate. I can deal with rats, mice, snakes, crocodiles etc, nothing like what would bother me. but any kind of bug freaks me out. i dont even know why

[Rob!]

I'm not a massive fan of bugs in general either tbh - like ladybirds are alright but things like earwigs and CENTIPEDES OMG D:

[Iceman]

Spiders.

I would have said snakes/reptiles but my bearded dragon will now crawl from my foot up onto my face and then set up camp on my head. I know he isn't a snake but he has changed my whole thought process of creatures like that.

mess at your lack of poll use :fist:

[LaLaLand]

I didn't realise I was petrified of rats until last week when one got into our kitchen behind the fridge and I had to try and get it out... omg, never again.

Mind you I don't like any sort of rodents and rabbits/guinea pigs because of their eyes how they're all black and ergh, makes me shiver.

[Xtopher]

Roaches. When I was vacuuming last week I found a death big one. Took me 20 minutes to pick it up and flush it. A lot of screaming and sweating.

[Xtopher]

Definitely rats. Rats or crocodiles. I'm fine with the other conventional phobia animals.

When I was in Florida I saw some wild crocs/gators/whatever. They're the most unpleasant looking things I've ever seen.

[lostalex]

Isis, because they throw gay people off of tall buildings and i'm scared of heights.

[Dollface]

Slay <3.

what is ugly about them? i think they're adorable

[Ashley.]

Whales. I don't know where my fear of Whales comes from but idk they creep me out more than sharks.

[Benjamin]

Goats

[Ammi]

...birds/moths and most winged things..(although not an animal as such..)...I just hate flappiness/wings...

[kirklancaster]

:laugh:

[kirklancaster]

Goats

:laugh: Goats???? Why Ben?

[kirklancaster]

I really have a hatred (and fear) of rats. I also dislike mice but I am not afraid of them.

[rubymoo]

Goats

:laugh:

I love goats they're sooo cute!

From the above poll i would have to say, spiders, bugs, and snakes.

[jennyjuniper]

Spiders.

I would have said snakes/reptiles but my bearded dragon will now crawl from my foot up onto my face and then set up camp on my head. I know he isn't a snake but he has changed my whole thought process of creatures like that.

I hate snakes, but I like lizards. Now I think of it, I'm okay with anything that has legs.

[jennyjuniper]

what is ugly about them? i think they're adorable

I agree. Rats are also very intelligent and pet rats are affectionate.

[Crimson Dynamo]

its humans i am afraid of

mainly their stupidity

[Black Dagger]

what is ugly about them? i think they're adorable

I just don't like all the fur and tails and their eyes look evil. It's just one of those things I guess.

[Ashley.]

Just realised my fear of Whales came from Finding Nemo. :hee:

[Braden]

I've always disliked foxes.

Like, I get why people like them because they're not ugly, but I just hate how sly they look. And something about them scares the life out of me.

[Niamh.]

Spiders by a long way, i have problem with rats/mice or snakes. hate Moths and butterflies too though

[smudgie]

Snakes, without a doubt is my biggest phobia.
Weird thing is when I lived in Africa and saw hundreds of the beggars it didn't bother me, even after being bitten by one.
Slugs, worms and caterpillars as well, most things that crawl to be honest.
Centipede and millipedes don't bother me though.:shrug: probably because they have all those little legs.

So basically you don't actually have a snake phobia

[Cal.]

Spiders omg I just can't deal with em

[Niamh.]

Sounds more like she developed a phobia later on in life

[Natalie.]

Spiders,every time I see one I get so scared :laugh:

[Suze]

I'm not a massive fan of bugs in general either tbh - like ladybirds are alright but things like earwigs and CENTIPEDES OMG D:


Ladybirds are Not alright :nono: I tolerate them, same as I have to Moths, butterflies, earwigs, beetles etc; because it is an irrational fear and I realise that, but they still make my stomach churn a little when round them. I am fine with spiders though.

[Livia]

I'm not afraid of any animals. I find the idea of sharks scary but I'm never going to put myself in their way.

[Liam-]

Out of that list I'm scared of spiders, bugs, moths and butterflies, anything else I can deal with.

[Dollface]

I agree. Rats are also very intelligent and pet rats are affectionate.

I have 3 and they're soo affectionate and loving, I find it hard to understand why people are scared of them tbh!

[Dollface]

This! Humans are the scariest being on this planet by far, there's no reason for me to be scared of little animals

When a human crawls on my face in the middle of the night with it's 8 furry legs, I'll be scared of them too :laugh:

[Dollface]

:laugh: i will admit spiders are creepy as hell (due to their large amount of legs D:) but they can't actually do you any harm

[Liam-]

In my case I'm just sacred of any animal that isn't big enough for me to just pick up and move without having to use a tub or some other form of storage to do so, but if it flies too, then no thank you I'm moving out, have the house.

[LukeB]

I'm not scared of any animal tbh.. all animals are cute

[EspeonBB]

Wasps, bees and spiders :umm2:

[LukeB]

Thior eyes are just horrible and freak me out, they are void of life and sinister. They really creep me the **** out. :laugh:

They can if you live in Australia :hmph:

[rubymoo]

That's why i could never live in Australia, some of the spiders are bigger than me:worry:

[Dollface]

They can if you live in Australia :hmph:

i don't live in australia :hmph: (luckily, because i'd hate the hot weather and walking into the garden to see a spider as big as my dog :laugh:)

[Niamh.]

actually though Ireland and the UK have a spider called a False Widow that can give you a nasty bite too

[Dollface]

oh yeah i forgot about that one, just looked it up and people have lost fingers due to their bites D:

[smudgie]

So basically you don't actually have a snake phobia

Believe me, I actually do.
I can't even watch a cartoon version of one, if they decide to make adverts that feature a snake in them and I watch it not knowing, I end up having nightmares.
If I am ever stressed or overtired, hubby has to check my shòwer room and turn the bed quilt down to show me that there are no snakes lurking.
Sounds ridiculous but it's true.
I have always feared them, but it is now full blown phobia"

[Jay.]

snakes, i was forced to hold one as a kid and recently i touched one and it almost bit me

not here for them at all

[Ithinkiloveyoutoo]

Normal everyday- dogs

Biggest animal fear- lions. And I dream about them quite a lot

[Denver]

Pigeons and Gulls they always attack me and try and burgle my house
