Hey Pandas, What Is Your Best Chance Animal Encounter Story? (Closed)

Animals are awesome! It is so cool when you see one doing something out of the blue! What is your experience?

We were river rafting in Idaho (Middlefork Adventures. Wonderful people!). We saw a golden eagle. Our guide said it was only the second he'd seen in over a decade. It was majestic.

Immediately after it projectile pooped about 15 feet. Not so majestic anymore.

I was hiking with my sister when a big black snake came out of the leaves, stood up, and opened its mouth. My sister pulled one leg up like a flamingo and went, “Eeeppp!” I threw my hands in the air and went, “Ack!!” Everyone just startled each other

I live in the woods so animals are always around. 5 or 6 years ago my brother's dog (Buffalo Butt) chased down a fawn (a baby deer) and caught it! The thing couldnt have been 3 weeks old. Buffalo Butt comes walking back to the trail with the fawn in his mouth, looking right proud of himself. My brother hollared 'Drop it!' so he does, and we heard the does (mama deers) hissing at us. Thats when you run! Baby deer was fine though, just a little startled.

I have two that involve squirrels.

The first one isn’t super exciting. A squirrel once came up to my house and sat on the windowsill even though my sister was standing right in front of it. It was kind of cool to see a squirrel up close.

The other one is the time my mom saw a squirrel and managed to sneak up behind it(not sure how), and she reached out and touched his tail! I swear I’ve never seen a squirrel run so fast.

I was walking home one night after buying some (insert snack name here cuz I can't remember) and heard a noise in some nearby bushes. A black cat I'd never seen before came out and gave my shin a friendly headbutt and went back.

I never saw it again. And today I have a debate with myself whether it was a dream or real life. It was real life.
