Your wildest experience with wildlife? Backyard, in the forest or whatever

I woke up with a skunk sleeping on my feet. (I was in an open casita in the jungle.) A few hours later, I woke up to find the skunk sleeping next to my arm. Two hours later I awoke to a big black bird perched on my shoulder. I found my power animal. The skunk was about boundaries. It was about finding my power and enjoying the freedom. It happened two months after my ex and I split.

Two months ago a sloth climbed up the railing to the house and hung out with her baby by the front door until I could get the dogs away.

A few years ago I tripped and almost face planted on a bushmaster. I had no idea it was venomous and wouldn't let my caretakers kill it. (I landed two feet from it.)

Yesterday I almost stepped on a 2-foot cayman hiding alongside a rock. On the way home, I saw a brown spider monkey threesome, with the male spider monkey taking turns with both females in time with the barking of the dog below, but the spider monkeys tend to show off like that, especially the orange ones.

My best experience with wildlife was playing foster mama to 5 fox kits (Huxley, Dolly Parton, Zeppelin, Janice/Juanita Joplin, and Jimmy Hendrix). I used to go to the beach (lakeside) with them twice a day with my cats and dogs. One day we ran into an armadillo - human, cat, dog, two foxes and a juvenile armadillo.

This is my cat and one of the foxes playing together on the beach. I have shared it on threads a few times, but too cute not to share again.

Walking along a bluff in shorts and hearing a "rattle"..look down and see a rattlesnake pissed and posed, rattling it's tail.

I dove sideways on a rock and it didn't strike me. Just eased back down flat and slowly. I was shaking so bad, I couldn't stand up for about 20 minutes.

Saw a large hyena while in the woods one day that a guy had been keeping illegally, and then had released along with a black panther and some other things when the state had come down on him about it when I was a kid... not something you normally run across in Texas.

Lechuza, chupacabra, shadowmen, rakes

Deer ran by me full speed

It was dark

Scared the living shit out of me

I pulled a meat string out of a dog's ass at my neighbors house one time right after a cat ate its whole litter. Wild shit.

Kinda like the Tiger King?

I’m just going to say for me it was the time a noisy herd of javelin swine came crashing down the hillside a few feet away from me.
