People without a doubt! All other animals are acting on instinct. Humans make the choice to be deliberately violent, evil, Abusive etc!

Snakes. Their slithering the the quick jumping to bite. What I’ve seen on many animal documentaries scares me enough to never want to be cornered by one.

Furbys.

Take a moment and imagine a real life flesh and blood Furby. If you're not already screaming then something is deeply wrong with you.

Bears. My parents regularly have black bears wondering around their neighborhood. I’m afraid for my parents although they have managed to live around the bears for more than a decade. Other than that, horses. I’m afraid of horses. Their heads are bigger than my torso and this freaks me out. They’re beautiful, so I admire them from a distance. I have ridden horses. Still afraid of them.

Dogs. I was attacked and bitten while having a walk by a dog that escaped his invisible fence. I get scared to shaking when I encounter dogs that aren’t restrained even though I realize it’s irrational. Many dog owners don’t consider this when they let there pet off the leash in shared spaces.

I'm a cat person and I've been bitten by dogs. But I know that there are nice dogs because I've met them. It's difficult but you have to always remember that everyone is different, even among those of other species. And I think that, in the case of dogs, many of their humans think that the dog is good because the dog is good to them. But it's precisely because a dog is good that he will attack anyone that seems to be threatening his human. I think the problem is not the dogs but their humans. "Invisible fences" and "off the leash" is not a good way to go.

Not so much scared as startled. My home is in an urban area with a lot of deer. Deer that are super comfortable with people. Like sitting on the patio, sneak up behind you, 4 feet away. These deer are like 180 - 200 pounds. I am wary when I go out into the yard or drive at night.

Coming around a curve in a path, I was once confronted, face to face, by a huge deer while on a walk. We both stopped when we saw each other, froze and stared at each other. After a moment he shook his head very slightly and turned and walked back to where he had come from, looking for all the world like he was thinking, "Here's one human being we don't have to worry about." I was still standing there, frozen and terrified.

Rats. They can live through pretty much everything. They are filthy. Not to mention they run in packs.

Opossums. One night while camping I got up and walked to the restroom. Everyone was asleep. I walked into the restroom and saw the biggest opossum I had every seen. It was hissing and mas and I thought I was going to die. Ran screaming back to my tent. I was 11.

Bats. They freak me out. You’ve got to make a choice in this life: you’re either furry or you can fly.
If you can do both, you’re a freak.
And you freak me out.

Dogs. Those are dangerous, stinky, intrinsically evil monsters full of teeth, which barf and drool and poop everywhere, and they are everywhere! These creatures are terrifying, but many weird people seem to not hate them enough for some unknown reason.

You're exaggerating, right? I'm a cat person and I've been bitten a few times by dogs. But I've also known dogs who are friendly but polite.

Not an original answer but I have been with wolves, large dogs, livestock, large birds and small reptiles . I am uneasy around large reptiles and large bugs but am most afraid of the harm humans can do.

Animals don't frighten me they only want to survive and they act on that instinct. Their behavior is predictable. Humans in the other hand are unpredictable and violent. Climate change bc of us will kill all animals and insects so why fear them we have bigger things to worry about. I feel only empathy for animals and I wish I could save them all. My grand kids will not know what a polar bear or an elephant looks like alive. No bees either except for the small pods we can maybe save.
