Nope...I don't seem to have a fear of any animals or insects...might not want to get to close to a snarling lion though..LOL...insects, nope either...I've actually personally handled snakes, lizards, mice, tarantula spiders--that is a long story..LOL. I do know one friend though that is so terrified of snakes she can't even watch them on TV!

I like pyewacket have NO problems at all with any insects or animals, BUT my best friend has the same problem which is if she sees, hears, or even catches a sliver of a glimse of a snake even if it's just on t.v. she will have a panic attack. She has a MAJOR phobia of snakes. As far as I'm concerned though I don't bother with insects/animals as long as they don't bother with me. That is also the attitude of most insects/animals so it seems to work and keep the peace!
Your Friend, PurpleTeddyBear ;)

Hey...me and you hae the same opinion...I'm not scared of lions but I def. wouldn't want ot be around a mad one! lol.
I've owned snakes, mice and lizards too. I've never even held a taratula, but I would like to. They're pretty cool to me. =)
You should recommend Anaconda or Silent Predators too your friend ;P hehe. Then be evil and tell her it's about something compltely different =D

i'm overly super afraid of crustaceans. crabs, lobsters, crawfish, all of that. i hate to look at any of it cooked or alive. just thinking about it gives me the creeps. my friends think its funny to threaten to buy a lobster from a grocery store to hide in my house somewhere and i tear up at the thought.

It's funny -- I'm scared of rodents that are running loose in our house -- like mice, etc.
But we have a pet gerbil & I've had a mouse & rat too! They're okay if they're pets... but if they're not, I'm afraid of them! (disease & stuff... and getting bitten!)

I'm really not scared of any animal..The only thing that does gross me out and I will not touch at all is magots..YUK..My husband uses them for fishing and it just freeks me out..He has to put it on my hook if and when I do go fishing...
But I do have a sister in law that is so scared of cats it's not funny! I have to lock my cat in the bedroom when she come to my house to visit...She will stand there and cry if a cat is in the same room as she is in...I have seen her so scared before because of a cat being to close to her that she peed her pants....

hi peanut,
The one thing that I fear the most is snakes. I get chills just thinking about them. So that should tell you what I thought about Snakes on the plane. That's right I did not watch it.
Earthworm and nightcrawlers are my other worst thing to deal with. They are why I never seem to be able to finish my yardwork, even if I wear gloves. My husband get quite a laugh when I say I'm going to work on a flower bed or something in the yard. He sets a timer to see how long I will stay at it, because he knows that as soon as I see a worm, I am done. LOL
Happy posting..

Omg I have a water bug phobia, it's not even funny!!! If I see one I feel like I'm going to pass out or something. My hands get all sweaty and I can't breathe. The other day one apeared right in front of me and I actually had a panic attack, it was bad...Thank God my husband was around to kill that horrific insect. Where were my cats when I needed them the most hehehehehehehe
