Default What popular animals don’t you like?
Do you have any animals you have a hard time not getting creeped out/irritated by despite the fact that they’re generally well-liked/seen as cute (so obviously not pythons, Tom-cats or rats)?

Dogs for me because they do kinda boldly represent the most-annoying things about super-extraverted humans (noisy, overly-quick to form associations and hyper.). Brian Griffin’s an obvious exception (lol) and in a more general sense I’m not saying dogs are a bad type of animal at all (I definitely don’t hate them) but I just know they’re not for me.

And it looks like I’m not alone: https://www.theodysseyonline.com/sor...dont-like-dogs | https://inews.co.uk/opinion/comment/...t-accept-53487 | https://youtu.be/msCcO-nQfg8

Popular as in pets, or just popular animals in general?

Could be either or both, I suppose. That’s your own interpretive call.

Killer Whales then probably. How they stalk and kill their prey is impressive, but it's so sadistic the way they toy with, and torture some Seals.

Hate Swans.....I'm not a fan of any bird really. The flappiness of them creeps me out. Penguins are the exception but as they are flightless they are ok by me

Geese.
I wouldn't harm them ever but they are really relentless and aggressive.

As a teen I once saw a sign saying beware of the goose.
I thought it was funny and so still cut across the area.

That Goose charged after me and had me running like crazy to get away from it.
It was extremely aggressive.

Some people still have geese on their premises as feathered guard dogs !!




;;;; Geese have been used as guard animals since ancient Greece. They are the most territorially protective, vicious, foul tempered creatures in existence. Guard dogs can be distracted, not geese.

I was really scared Zizu.
It charged at me then chased me all the way until I got out.

I have given them a wide berth ever since

geese are great i think. Full of character. They are prepared to take on anything too if it invades its territory

Cats !

They're selfish ,and they can be vicious with their claws ,and they're more or less useless & lazy.

You'll be there dying or distraught , and a cat will just walk away and "meow" at you .... or fall asleep.

Surely you can see how certain people mind find the non-anthropomorphic, bad poetry-writing variants annoying.
