While my mother was afraid of snakes the most, my father and sister can't see a dog or an elephant on their way...

Hi deepuuus, well as I'm not likely to encounter anything truly wild to be afraid of I 'll have to go with gekos as they freak me out and constantly attempt to get into my home rather than just staying outide as they should. Their bulging eyes and transparent bodies are truly creepy and they can turn red when one chases them.

I don't like Spiders. I know that is an insect and not an animal. but that is what bothers me the most. I have a healthy respect for all other animals -I respect that the wild ones are wild and I will keep my distance. I have dogs of my own and have worked in a kennel with other dogs. some could be a little mean- but you eventually learn their body language and can tell if they are scared and want to run or attack. and stay away when they are in attack mode.. lol. I have a lot of cats too and I have an aunt who has a very big fear of them.. for me it is strange- I just can't understand what is to fear from a cute little kitten.. :)

The animals I'm afraid of the most are the Doverman Pincher, and Pitbull dogs. They are so mean. I've been afraid of them ever since I was a little girl, especially when such dogs would show their fangs.

I'm afraid of insects actually, other animals such as dogs or elephants or snakes don' scare me at all. I have two dogs and I'd touch an elephant or a snake, they don't scare me at all (well unless the snake is a deadly one of course, in that case I wouldn't go Steve Irwin on them lol). I'm more afaid of grasshoppers, I actually loathe them: the way they move, their bodies, their eyes and wings. They're disgusting even though I'm sorry to say such a thing because they're still living beings and I wouldn't hurt them unless they have the very bad idea to land on me :|

I am afraid of large cats. Not house cats, but large and strong big cats! I actually dream about being chased by them regularly.

Hi there deepuuus, I too, am afraid of snakes. My brother used to collect them and always come at me with them thinking if I was around them enough and touched them enough that I'd overcome my fears. Did it work? NO!! Still, afraid of them even though I have never once been hurt by a snake. As afraid of snakes as I am, I would have to say that humans scare me more than any other animal on earth. So that's my answer...HUMANS. Sorry to say but it's true.

I'm not afraid of any animals but I do keep my distant from deadly animals like bears. I don't like bugs in my house but not because they scare me. It's more because it's just gross to get bugs in your food.

I personally fear and hate dogs, especially the biggest ones. They are downright threatening to me.

I am afraid of Bee's/wasps i can't even stand something that makes a noise similar to them. My husband thinks its funny to making buzzing noises and it drives me mad. I am so sensitive to the buzzing that i can tell a bee is near by in a room even if its still. I still can't figure out if its the actual bee's/wasps i am scared of or just the noise freaks me out. I have nightmares about swarms of them chasing me.

People will probably laugh at this but I most afraid of the good old-fashioned domestic cat. When I was young I went to pet a cat and it got spooked and scratched me badly on the face and as a result I have been petrified of them ever since.

For me it is spiders and its not just a normal fear like they make me cringe or anything I am talking a real phobia I can not see a spider without feeling sick shakey faint I sweat and normally run aswell most people make fun of it but it is actully quite traumatic for me unfortunatly unless someone has a phobia like it its hard for them to understand and no amount of telling me the spider is more scared of me than I am it will help that teeny litle thing is like the horror of all my nightmares! I am slightly better since having my girls and if im alone with them and see a spider I am now able to kill it its like my need to "protect" my girls from something I see as a real threat counter acts my fear but if im alone I will leave the room and wont go back until my partner removes it or kills it, I was recently told conkers stop spiders from entering a house im willing to try it!
