seems he was attending one of the fightingcock tournyments, and was releasing his rooster when it turned on him...

Seriously, they are dangerous.
[b]How the hell can someone die from a frelling rooster? I mean, how hard would it be to just kick the damn thing across the room? [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/tongue.gif[/img]

Their known as Fighting cocks and they have sharpened steel spikes on they're legs. Those spikes are about 3-4 inches long and razor sharp! [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/eek.gif[/img]

Ok, here is how you use it.....
*runs away from room before A2597 realizes I was refering to him as the monkey*
*Pushes button*
*Activates satalite tracking system*
*Sets it to RC's personal body heat (Its as exact as a fingerprint you know, no two people have the same heat signiture)*
*sets satalite laser system to "deep fry"*

Note, if you want a rooster, get a Rhode Island Red, they are pretty, and can be rather laid back.
NEVER go anywhere near a damn Banties (SP? the small annoying usualy blackish colored ones) they may be small but they are completely psychotic and will try to kill you.
If your smart you can defend yourself, one time a banty got pissy and tried to pick on grandmother while she was wood chopping. Evidently she made excellent chicken soup that night.
[b]I don't think you've ever seen an aggressive rooster, Vertigo. :P

Shit...nothing my steel-toed boots couldn't solve. I'd kick the damn thing before it even got a chance to do anything.

I used to have chickens (Not Fighting ones), the Roosters used to crack me up with the attitude! [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/biggrin.gif[/img]
They go limp and docile if you pick them up by their feet and hold them upsidedown. This works for Rabbits too after the first few seconds of kicking.

You want to talk about dangerous animals, try having a smart ass Goose or two on the prowl!!!
eeeek!
True story, I was Vacationing on summer at my Uncles cabin, 75 miles north Of Helena Montana, when one morning I opened the front door and HELLO!
Talk about an instant laxative.

Birds can be dangerous when they doesn't like human.
And in fact also other birds can be dangerous:
Here in Finland lives one owl species that can be dangerous to anyone who tries to get close of it's nest. They might attack you and if that happens they target to your head, and they could easily rip eyes out of your head if they get close.
Of course it's same like humans, not all of them would attack but some "individuals" could be very agressive.
I don't know does this species have english name but here's image of it:

Here's this species scientific name "Strix uralensis":
[url="http://www.biomi.org/linnut/lintukuvia.html"]http://www.biomi.org/linnut/lintukuvia.html[/url]
But I would say [url="http://animaltrial.com/ostrichbird.html"]Ostrich[/url] could be most dangerous bird because they're really big so if one of them would decide to attack, you would't have no way to stop it.

hahah
When I was a kid, I'd goto Navy Lake (Named aptly due to the fact that its on a former naval base in Millington, TN.) and feed the ducks and geese popcorn. Of course, they LOVED it and would walk upto reaching distance. Some of the ducks would even come up right to you and even get in your lap if you were still enough. Keep in mind that these are all wild animals. Anyways, one time my dad ran out of popcorn, and this one goose wanted more so he waddled up and bit him on the leg. He turned around and the damn bird bit him again! Needless to say, that bird got the shit slapped out of it. [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/biggrin.gif[/img] It never bit him again after that.

Beautiful bird!
Funny you should mention this, I had a run in with an Owl here in the mountains of California. A couple years ago I was camping a few miles up in the forest at a regular camp ground above Bass Lake during late Spring. I got there a bit late that day and so I was setting up right after the sun went down.
Dang Bird kept Buzzing-the-Tower so to speak. Musta had a nest nearby or something. WOuld have been bad if anything went wrong, as I was all by myself that evening...

now...and OTTER is one creature I do NOT want mad at me...those thing EAT aligators...they actually HUNT them...
picture a nice little (5-6foot) otter swimming in a pond, it stops, and uses its paw to play the water, making ripples. Aligators are attracted to movment on the water (Bobbers being another example). soo...aligator moves towards movement, otter is perfectly still, nose-to-nose with a six foot gater. then it just slips under water, and bites the gater on the tail. Now, when something smacks a gater, they ALWAYS jump out of the water, backwards (Bending back as if to bite their own tail). Well, the otter knew this, and when the gater jumped back like that, the otter lunged right for the neck. LOTS of splashing, and then the otter is dragging a gater as big as it is out of the water...REALLY wild, I saw this twice...first time a four foot gater, then a six footer.
wild world we live in eh?

[b]I had a run-in with a Rattle snake...it was coiled, rattleing away less then three feet from me...needless to say I ran. (Small tidbit of info, the fasted snake in the world can only move 8mph. (NOT striking speed, forward movment).[/b][/quote]
Actually, that was probably the worst thing you could've done. By running, the snake could've considered you prey and followed you. Always back off slowly [b]without making any sudden movements[/b]. Thats a cardinal rule when being attacked by [b]any[/b] animal. (well, cept for crocs. [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/biggrin.gif[/img])

now, if it HAD bitten me, I would not have ran, I would have done everything possible to slow down the circulation of blood.

[b]Here's an odd one. A few summers ago I noticed a couple of trapdoor spiders had nested in a bush outside my house. Nothing happened when I probed thier webs with a pen, but I use my finger and out popped the little critter ready to stick it to me.

Funny thing about spiders. The really big ones in South America have been known to go after anything and everything up to and including birds, mice, even boa constrictors. They'll stick it to us if we invade their territory, but I've never heard of a spider preying on a human for food. Even the ones with fatal poison.
