When animals attack...I once, accidentally, punched a racoon.
It had wandered into my tent, I was half asleep and thought it was a mate pratting around. There was a yelp and then all hell broke loose.
What have you been attacked by?

Ostrich TerrorOn holiday when I was about 4 years old, I was toddling happily around a trout farm with my little polystyrene cup of 'trout feed' when a wandering ostrich came up and pecked the damn thing out of my hands.
Bearing in mind it was about twice my height I have to say it has lodged in my brain as one of my scariest ever childhood moments.
I got my own back a couple of months ago by eating an ostrich steak. (By the way it tasted just like cow steak, quite disappointing.)
Also quite nasty, I got charged by a Guernsey cow, I was stroking this thing when it put its head down and went fully gung-ho at me. I ended up running backwards and luckily it was tethered to a post and it got snapped backwards by its head when the rope ran out. Ha! (It survived)
