I had a large owl try to fly into a stand right in my face down near Cotulla, Tx. in the dark. Pretty scary. It kept flying around the stand until daylight. When it got light I saw two owl chicks at the base of the stand. Turns out the guy from the night before had thrown the chicks out of the nest when he went there to hunt.

Also, walking up on a bear eating at a feeder in the dark with a bow in my hands was pretty spooky.

30+ pound Canada goose. I had to clear out to keep him from flying right into my chest. Angry bird.

Gator, hog or skunk.

I was most scare about the skunk.

Hog is the only one I was in serious danger with. My gun at the time (semi auto 30-06) jammed and it was about 15 Yds away and was getting really mad. (Luckily I had my .40 on me)

We were frog gigging and I fell in the water and felt a gator swim by my leg.

Most dangerous animal i have come in contact with in the wild is Shelby Stanga on the Tangipahoa river. That dude drives like an idiot!

Second most dangerous would be alligators

Caught about a 4' shark wade fishing in the surf at the Bolivar Pocket. It was fun getting him off.

Same spot but not me Thank God, saw a dude get nailed by a Sting Ray. Very ugly and very painful for the poor dude.

About a 3' gator in my 1 man pit on my old lease in Brazoria County, TX during a Teal hunt. It was in there after a huge rain. Didn't even know it was in there till I started bailing water pre-hunt.

Black Bear came up to the treestand I was in deer hunting up in Parkdale, AR.

Coon in a box stand before daylight. Coon ended up dead but only after he drew blood from me in 3 different places. Has anyone ever fired a .270 inside a stand? A scoped bolt action is not the preferred weapon for close quarter battle.


Would have paid good money to see

I don't know if this would be considered "in the wild" but In Jr high my brother and I got chased by a bull while dove hunting in Mississippi. Pretty scary at the time as we just made it over the barbed wire fence before getting our asses handed to us.


Similar to mine. Big bull named "Alphonse" just off Chicken Farm Rd, Amite, La, USA.

It's the last time I poo'd in my pants (not counting sharts). I was like 7.
