Have you ever had an encounter with a wild animal?
I had a stare down with a deer one time back in the late fall of 2009. We looked at each other for like a minute, and then it must have realized it was late for dinner because all of a sudden it quickly scurried off...lol.
Often I do, bears, raccoons, opossums, a black racer snake that lives around my well house and is at least 5 feet long he has gotten used to me and has joined me on the side porch a few times. Recently I encountered him while he was killing and eating a dangerous copperhead snake in my side yard. Foxes, wild pigs, a few bobcats.
Once, when I was visiting friends, I helped carry something out by the trash cans and we saw a big raccoon. We yelled, it threw a can at us (I didn’t know they could do that) and ran off.
@SubstantialKick Oh yeah, they are. This one had a full rack of antlers. We were camping and it wandered into a vacant site.
I went down the dirt road behind the site to get a look at the moose.
He was munching on tree branches above him, when I arrived. Raising his head abruptly and turning in my direction, I thought he was charging. Her was only reaching higher for more leaves.
I felt like a Matador in the ring.

I run into deer and other animals all the time on the path around the lake.
