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?

Fuggin rad- python stories I just remembered
Once I was out hiking and saw a five-foot long Burmese Python. It was cool. I showed it to another hiker thinking he would appreciate the coolness of a five-foot long Burmese Python. Apparently he didn't. He ran away and came back with a large rock poised over his head.
But by far my favorite python story comes from a friend of my boyfriend who grew up in India. Back in the school days, the kiddies were on a bus on their way to what was sure to be a rollicking good field trip. Suddenly, "BA-WHUMP!", the bus jolts as it drives over a huge bump in the road. A python had just had a gi-normous meal and, as one tends to do when one is a python with a full belly, stretched out on the warm black road to digest his meal. The kids gawping out the bus windows got the treat of not only seeing a huge python flattened by a schoolbus, but also seeing the python's stomach split open and the contents, a half-digested deer, spilling out onto the road.
I did manage to convince the hiker not to kill the first python. What can I say, there's too much unnecessary python death these days.
