Scariest animal smaller than your foot?

[Wintermoot]

moths I,m scarred shitless for them!

 

[Buizel91]

Spiders, oh gods spiders.
I hate wasps/bees/etc but I don't have a full on phobia for those (although is it a phobia when they can actually do damage?)

Spiders are the most awesomest and beautiful of all creatures.


That one is just so cute and cuddlable.

...cute and cuddly? lets see what happens if you wake up to find it glaring you in the face. hehe

Spiders....Just spiders(shudders)

 

[Buizel91]

Scorpions. The smaller they are the more dangerous.

tell that to fallout 3

 

[Danglybits]

The Sydney funnel web. I have nightmares about those things. Scorpions.

Probably some sort of unkillable flesheating strand of bacteria. A lot of animals are smaller than my foot, but most of them won't be able to hurt me (regardless of how toxic they might be). But bacteria and other harmful microbes are hard to shield yourself against or even know when they decide to attack you.

Hey buddy, I'm getting a message saying that the BBC have bloked it in my country due to copyright laws...which is gay. Can you send the video in a different format so that it doesn't block it?

Here ya go.

A cute little bugger ain't it?

I think the scariest animal smaller than my foot is a wasp. It flies, it stings, it bites, they're comonly in groups of hundreds and their reproduction makes lots of them quickly.

Yeah, I hate them so much, hornets are even worse.

Sydney Funnel Web Spider

A Spider roughly two inches long, drawn to warm dry environments (like your house), extremely aggressive, will willingly attack creatures many thousand times it own size (like you), locking fangs that cannot be shaken out (that's right you gotta reach down and pull), a tendency to strike repeatedly (that thing in your hand? still wants to bite you), a disproportionatly hard carapace that can resist serious crushing forces (like your foot), fangs long and powerful enough to pierce human nails, oh and the small matter of a venom specifically evolved to kill primates (that's you again) so toxic that it can potentially kill within 15minutes of being bitten. Should you be given antivenom you will most likely survive, but the bite itself has a chance of developing into a necrotising sore that could lead to the amputation of the bodypart.

Worth noting nobody's been killed by one of these things since 1981, but still.

i... wont... close... my... eyes... ever... again...

 

[Rooster893]

Any flying, stinging/biting insect. I have a phobia.

Mutual. I hate anything that flies and has a stinger. Bleh!

 

[itstimeforpie]

Oh, and camel spiders, those things are freaky.

 

[Grayjack]

Wolf spiders with egg sacs. Once you crush them, 20000 more appear.

 

[SenseOfTumour]

aren't pretty much all the scary beasties smaller than your foot? Most of us will never come face to face with a lion or a bear, but spiders and wasps are common enough to freak us out.

(doesn't live in some nutty place like Oz, full of freaky snakes and other stuff)

 

[jelock]

Gotta agree with spiders on this one. I dont find them scary, they just give me the creeps.

 

[Fireyredmullet]

Anything that flies and has a Stinger... guh, fuck bugs man.

 

[Chicago Ted]

Frogs...

FUCK FROGS.

Atkinson + Terribly deadly small sneaky creatures that produce in the hundred with every batch...in your home!

I'm not sure i ever wanna go to Australia.

Seriously though, I'd say the poisonous scorpions. The smaller they are, the deadly they are. If it's smaller than your foot RUN

 

[Aunel]

Moths.

They just disgust me. Damn them to hell!

you'll love to hear that I once killed a moth by placing my bass amp next to it, and then ramming on my E string until it died.
which it did.

OT: every kind of ant, ever.

 

[dalek sec]

Australia's massive list of dangerous creatures but namely it's spiders. The one's there look like they could shrug off most small arms fire with ease, honestly the whole country reminds me of one of those "Death Worlds" from Warhammer 40K.
