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?

Well I wasn't attacked, but could have been...Whilst camping one evening in the Serengeti (or nearby in Tanzania anyway) I toddled off with the group trowel (for the digging of a "toilet hole") and a bit of bogroll to do my business in peace away from the campfire and fellow travelers. Holding a torch in my teeth and squatting there waiting to curl one down, I heard a noise in the darkness in front of me. I quickly raised my head up and the beam of light picked out about five pairs of menacing Hyena eyes not ten feet away.
I have NEVER started and finished a shit as quickly as that.
Ran back to the rest of the group with my shorts round one ankle yelling at the top of my voice.
It still turns my blood cold to think of what could have happened if I hadn't heard that noise. How undignified to be ripped to shreds with your pants down. Really.
