I grew up in the states, bout 20 minutes from nyc, so the most we get around here are ? spiders. In other words, i had no experience with the wilderness.
So the first time i go to Turkey, im 14, and the first week we in the city. ? was no different from jersey.
A week later though we went to the village my mom was born at. A lil back story to the village, almost all the people 50 and younger dont live there. They are mostly in europe, and the rest are either in Istanbul, or Ankara. But come summer time they all go back to the village for 2 months. No lie in the winter the population in the village is under 500 but in the summer is 5k.
First time i get there i was im shock. ? mad was ill to me. Dirt roads, tractors, mad rocks on the ground, livestock everywhere, all types of animals. Mad dogs. And the dogs over there are aggresive as ? . First of aint no fences. And the houses with fences dont hold these dogs. They hop right over fences that are 6 feet high like nothing.
So when i got there ? was amazing. Check the next post for stories. -
When I was 8 years old I got attacked by a Chow Chow. That dog literally ripped my legs open in 8 different spots. If my father hadn't heard me screaming, I probably would have died.

So this ? is ? up and cruel, but i was young and it already happened, so ? it.
The people that had livestock in the village, my grandparents included, hired a sheperd. He would take all the sheep, bout 300 of them, and take them into the mountains for 3 days, where they could graze. Every 3 months he takes a week off. When he is off they usually look for some youngings to take the sheep grazing.
So im there and i volunteer. Me and 2 other cats, all 14 year old. They got a lil experience out in the mountains but not me. They was scared as ? . Talking about snakes and scorpions and wolves and ? . I aint give a ? though. I was just looking forward to being out there.
Long story short, we leave in the day, musta walked 10 miles out. The sheep all trained so they be in a line just following the dogs. That night some ? up ? happens.
Sun goes down, temperature takes a huge dip. Again these animals trained so when its time to sleep they form a circle with a 10 foot opening in the middle. We supposed to sleep in the opening so all the body heat could keep us warm. Cats im with scared as ? , we hearing wolves howling and all types of bugs. Its ? pitch black. But we had them shepard dogs making their rounds so i wasnt worried. I said ? it. Went to sleep.
Soon as i fall asleep, i feel something heavy as hell fall on me. Took all my breath out. Thought i was dying. Got up and saw a 100 something pound sheep walked over and fell on me. I was ? . Grabbed what they called a shepard stick. That ? is thick as ? , nh. A baseball bat got nothing on it. So i grabbed it and hit this mafucka straight on the temple.
Went right back to sleep. Woke up. The sheep i hit was knocked out while all of them were up. Went to check up on it. It aint moved. Realized it was dead.
? up story i know. I was sad as ? . Still get sad over it. Aint mean to ? it. It belonged to someother family too. Told them a wolf got it. They aint believe me but aint made too big of a deal. -
Nah. I stay a safe distance, especially around canals and the Everglades.

Nope.I'm black

Another story. Same time different week. Remember how i said them dogs there are mad aggressive.
So i had a cousin that i chilled with there. Same age as me. Only cousin that actually lived at the village at the time. He been in europe for years now but back then he was the only one there.
So this cousin of mine had a dog. Dog at the time was 13 years old. Now over there dogs live outside, exposed to all the elements. Aint no vets, no dog food with vitamins and ? . Dogs gotta either eat some gruel or fend for themselves. So when a dog there turns 13 its torn the ? up.
So one day im on his porch we chilling and like 50 feet away, 2 dogs attack my cousins dog. When i saw that ? i was like damn wtf that dog is dead.
Before i could even react i saw my cousin jump off the porch, run towards the dogs. I saw that ? and was like damn wtf my cousin is dead.
Then how i see this mafucka jump rigjt between the dogs and open hand smack the ? outa one of them. Dogs was just as shocked as me. They looked up at my cousin and then each other and was probably like man wtf just happen? Then they both just walked away.
I always tell that cousin like yo you the bravest mafucka i know. Cause i was just gonna let that dog die. If i had a gun i woulda shot them mafuckas. But at 14? No gun? I was not gonna jump in between some wild ass dogs fighting empty handed and open hand smack a dog. -
1st grade walked out of class after all the kids left and walked up on this big ass possum. Had a ? froze in my tracks. It was just me and it in the walkway then it hissed at me I took off like a lil chubby lightskin version of Usain Bolt arpunk the opposite side of the building. Til this day I have a phobia of possums

When I was around 4yrs old. Got attacked by my uncle's doberman pincher. It thought I was trying to feed it the only one who could feed it is my uncle. Long story short I needed emergency plastic surgery on my face, took over 1,000 stitches to close all the damage that was done. My mother destroyed all the pictures that she had from that time.

Was walking to school. Turned arou and saw this big deer being chased by about 10 stray dog's. ? scared me and I ran to school.

a group of friends and i went spearfishing/freediving. one came up saying that hed spotted a shark. they like to steal your catches of your line. hearing the word shark i automatically assumed the worst, a tiger shark. i go down by the rock that he said to go check out, and the shark wasnt a tiger and was a lot smaller than anticipated. -
Seagulls....
Basically I work in an industrial estate and on the roofs in the summer we have shitloads of seagulls that nest up on the roofs of the buildings.
Being a smoker I used to dip out the rear fire exit of the building for a ciggie, above the door way would always be this one 'scout' seagull it would always sit in one spot all day looking for approaching danger, and squawks like ? when it sees something it regards as a threat...
Everytime I would go out for a smoke, this irritating little ? would squawk endlessley until I returned inside the building, I tolerated this for a few weeks thinking it would adjust to my presence and calm down, as they're intelligent birds.
Well I was wrong, so one day I had a hangover and couldn't be assed to tolerate this loud as birds squawk ringing through my head, so I grabbed a fallen branch of a tree and threw it at the seagull...... what a ? mistake!
As soon as I done that the bird took flight going ? mental squawking like I never heard before, It flew out over the river so I'm thinking 'Cool thats dealt with ' and carry on my ciggie, bout 30 seconds later it come swooping over at me dive bombing me and trying to coat me in its own ? .
I ain't gunna lie I made a run for the entrance of the building fire exit, that bastard caught me off guard haha.
Apparently they're more intelligent than I gave them credit for, this bird takes up the same spot every summer when nesting time approaches and it ? REMEMBERS ME.
Every summer for the last 4 years or so this bird returns with all the others in the flock, and only this single bird STILL tries dive bombing/ ? on me and squawking like ? anytime it sees me....
I don't ? with seagulls since this incident haha.

I've had so many brushes with nature visiting relatives in north florida and Atlanta but i'll share some hood ? . many years ago i walked to the weed spot to get a 5 dollar sac(this was before purp was popular kiddies) so i'm taking my stroll through the hood I turn a corner and in front of me was the biggest rednose pit I've ever seen in my life. he looked like a small lion and his eyes were thecolor off fire. it was a brief standoff. I was frozen in my tracks from fear. thoughts off fight or flight were buzzing in my head. I calmly backed away slowly while maintaining eye contact knowing if I ran it would have chased me. I avoided a certain mauling by this canine terror. man it felt like the ghostbusters movie when they first ran into slimer. that's how tense that moment was.

...A few years ago me & my fam went outside to clean the patio. I go out with a ? bottle of Ortho for bugs to keep them away from the patio cause we live near a lake...We clean then I sprayed 2 cornered shutter style walls with Ortho...Suddely 2 Jurrasic Park/Jumanji sized spiders creep from the walls...We all started screamin' like bytches...I know a couple neighbors had to see us...Everyone runs and hide behind me...So Im lookin' like Frodo in LOTRs battlin' the spiders with a windex size bottle of Otho & ? K-Swiss kicks on my feet. I killed off one spider with the Ortho...My fam all behind me still screamin like bytches including me...I had to kick the other spider off the porch cause he ran towards the patio door...I finished spraying then we ran inside...I was stone paralized on the couch for about a half hour...? was real b...? was real.... :-SS

when i was 'bout 14 i was playing hide-and-go-seek at the nearby school with two of my friends. one of them and i were hiding and found this dope spot behind a wooden slab that was part of a baseball backstop. the school has this huge palm tree next to it that a family of turkey vultures lived in. the vultures were huge, and fast, and could often be seen fighting with other birds. for whatever reason a vulture was flying up above us and started getting closer. we didn't want to make a big scene by running out cause then our friend might see us and we wouldn't be able to hide there again. the bird got closer tho and we took off. i thought maybe we were just being irrational, so i looked back as i was running and saw the bird just behind us. i hit 5th gear and through my peripheral vision i saw the bird was pretty much on the back of my friend, he tripped, fell, rolled, and so much dirt went in the air i could just see bits and peices of him through the cloud (picture some jordans periodically coming in and out of view inside a dirt cloud). in my mind the bird was now picking at his back and i was next. i was small too, so i pictured it carrying me away to its tree. i ran faster and got back to the base. my friend who was the seeker was waiting right there and laughing so hard he didn't even bother to try and catch me.

helping a friend move.
i was grabbing a stack of boxes and felt something tickling my arm. i looked and its a cane spider running up my arm. i kinda went "whoooa.." dropped the boxes and flung it off. it ran off behind some more boxes. all my friend saw was it hit the ground and run...he was like "i guess were done with this room for today"
for reference..

That's why I added this as the first sentence.Whether they be insects, stray dogs, bears, deers, etc.
I liked that title and didn't want to change it, but I will go head and do it to make things simple.
"Ever had a dangerous encounter with any animals?" <--- sounds pretty wack compared to wildlife.
