What animals are you afraid of ?

Can't say I'm bothered by any of them. Guess it's just the little boy in me who finds spiders, snakes, scorpions and whatnot utterly fascinating!

Someone once told me that my fear of them probably lies in the fact that I may have been killed by a sting or numerous stings in a previous life.

I'm not scared of bees, but I have been stung by one and it wasn't so bad. I think if I was stung by a wasp and I survived, I wouldn't be scared anymore.

I wouldn't hold any spiders or cochroaches in my hand....never!

I don't mind touching a snake as long as it is not poisonous.

Scorpions I don't want to touch, but I am not uneasy like I feel with spiders....

My brother got stung by a wasp once and the wasp died. Odd that. Wasp stings don't bother me too much. I was once with someone who happily hammered a post through a wasps nest. Did the sting him? Did they hell, they decided I was the cause of there discomfort. The conversation went along the lines of,
"Andy, your going through a waps nest"
"No I'm not"
"Yes you are, because they are stinging me"
"Oh. We'll move then"
"Yes, good idea"

How strange that they didn't sting him!

My mom always gets followed by wasps... she hates them but she's not afraid of them... she's been stung several times

I have never been stung and they don't seem to bother me much either. I guess maybe some people just attract them more than others...

Now, if bees/wasps/hornets were on the list, then I would've voted. Those bad boys are ornery as hell and sting like the dickens! They I stay away from, not from fear, but safety!

I am afriad of spiders. Always have been but don't know why. I refused to sleep in my room once because a spider was hiding somewhere in there.

Snakes... I don't mind snakes if they aren't poisonous. Snakes are very beautiful creatures, but they eat mice so I can't like them too much. (I love mice and rats.)

I've never seen a scorpion. If it is not poisonous its okay too, but I would probably still keep my distance because I'm a little paranoid.

Cockroaches are just... scary little things.

Bees and wasps I'm not really scared of, but I don't want to get stung so I always try to stay away from them.
