The Scariest Creature

I am sure some of you had seen the scariest creature in this world. You can even drop names of these creatures instantly. For me, the scariest sculpture that I had seen is this. I took a picture of it as a keepsake and this masterpiece was installed in one of the local museum, BenCab Museum. It is situated in Asin Road, Tuba, Benguet Philippines. Sometimes I cannot understand the mind of sculptors in creating their masterpiece and let the people see them. The man-made sculpture looks like a frightened cat and it is ready to scratch with their claws. “What do you think of this wood craft?” “What’s the scariest thing you had seen?” Image Credit: Pixabay.com

The cat wants a reinforcement from you. It does look so scared. I assume that a dog is running towards him.

@lovinangelsinstead21 I do agree on that. She is sweet a few hours back. The reason is that she was so hungry.

I confess I rather like your scary sculpture. There are several such sculptures in America made by natives a long time ago.

It's not so scary, a real cat ready to scratch is more scary.

It's an interesting sculpture, but doesn't scare me. I've never come up against a truly scary creature. I guess that's pure luck.

“What do you think of this wood craft?” - I think it is a beautiful piece of art. “What’s the scariest thing you had seen?” - Not sure to be honest.

That is indeed a scary friend.It seems the artist wants us to feel how an animal reacts if they are hurt or hungry.
