Now this list is made up of my own personal experiences and to others I have personally dealt with.
This list is made of the animals that in my opinion don't give a damn. They are cheeky, cocky and whether humans are the apex predator or not, they don't care!
Its also all just a little fun, and perhaps you have a few you can add to this list that I have not had the 'pleasure' of meeting.
I will be counting down from 10.
10. Black mamba
I many years ago did some service helping the Port Elizabeth snake Park, cleaning snake cages, feeding crocs, sweeping floors etc, and out of all the snakes the handlers would handle, from Puff adders to Boomslang, they refused to handle the Black mamba. They said this snake would hunt them, and they said it was the fastest snake they've ever encountered.
It didn't seem to fear them at all.
Until the antidote was made, it was a guarenteed death too.....scary.
It's called the black mamba for the black colour in its mouth.
9. Chihuahua
These little devils have bitten more people than count Dracula! Come on now, every person has a granny or aunty somewhere with one of these little buggers that will bark at you and bite you if they get a chance.
I'm sure satan has these as his guard dogs and not some mean looking doberman with spiked collars!
8. Ostriches
I had a ride on an ostrich when I was younger. What a rush! You pull their necks like a handbrake to stop!
So the above pic is the look you get from these huge, quite friendly, and quite dumb birds just before they take whatever looks like food on your body or near abouts.
They have gone over my head, pecked my cap, tried my clothes or anything they could reach for a snack.
And they aren't fussy people, so anything is game!
7. Jack Russell
Size of a puppy, heart of a Lion! Don't back down for anything and extremely loving, intelligent and friendly dogs.
Can be naughty as they come though.
6. Cape Buffalo
These massive animals are well known for their bipolar temperaments. You never know what they are going to do, and they are responsible for around 200 human deaths a year!
They will not back down to predators, humans, elephants and the like.
Can you imagine how wild these guys would be if they had the bulk of their cousins the water buffalo?
Although they are not far off.
Just stay away from them!
5. Cats
You know it's true! From sticking their butt's in your face, to loving you one moments, and killing you the next, these guys are in their own universe.
Cute, cuddly, loving, purring, beautiful, fun, playful, deadly, puking, peeing, coughing, barking, scratching, poephol in the air, sleeping on your face, pc, keyboard.....etc.
There is nothing sacred to them....excwpt themselves!
4. Red Roman
These creepy 'spiders' are not venomous, but can give you a nasty bite.
They are also not very intimidated by your presence. In actual fact they seem to chase you in hot days (after the shade you're providing).
They creep me out!
3. Goats
These guys are into everything! They eat and poop everything! Nothing is off limits, and they can get just about anywhere too.
You wanna destroy your crops, get a goat. Wanna have shoes, clothes or anything of import treated like a buffet....get a goat.
They ARE cute, but can also get feisty and fight if they want to.
2. Hippos
One of the most dangerous animals on earth. Highly territorial and has the bulk, strength and teeth to back it up!
Don't think you're gonna get away easily from a hippo with a temper! You'd rather be faced with a Lion that these guys.
I had a hippo outside a bungalow door when we were kids on a school tour. We didn't know then how lucky we were not to have had that guy get angry at the noisy kids in the room.
1. House flies / mosquito
Now I'm putting these 2 down here because they are the spawn of satan!
What animal, fully knowing that I'm want to kill it, will land on the very instrument that is designed to kill it.
I mean really! It will narrowly escape death by swatter, then buzz around, making sure to land on you enough to tickle and bug you, then land on the swatter as if to say "stuff you sucker fool!"
Come now, these guys are a pain in the butt, don't know when they're beaten, breed like....well flies....cause more deaths than any animal on earth (mosquitoes), tend to fly around when you're relaxing, sleeping, eating or anything else you enjoy doing. Bite your animals, regurgitate on you, carry disease.....
Man poison comes in small bottles!
So what you think of my list?
Missing anything?
Would like to know your thoughts.
Cheers.
I love this article..... True to the point 😂😂😂😂😂 I could add that donkeys are cheeky characters too!
Ah your favourite. I bet they can get naughty!
totally agreed, cats are our masters and allow us the honour of serving them
Oh we got 2 here and that is exactly how they treat us.....and we love it
