It appears this lion is curious to see what the man at the campsite
is watching on his tablet. However, that is just our interpretation.
The reality behind all this is that the human in the picture is
professional animal trainer Charlie Sammut, and the lion is his
perfectly trained buddy. So yes, it’s safe to say that no one was
harmed in staging this photo.

Baby goats are such sweet, innocent animals — right? For those who don’t know, goats are known for manifesting aggressive behavior, which is their way of asserting dominance. This is probably why they shouldn’t be kept inside the house as pets, but rather on the farm to help with agriculture. This girl would have avoided being rammed if, instead of backing away, she’d slapped the goat on the side of his neck.

This jaguar escaped Mahananda Wildlife Sanctuary in West Bengal,
where it was part of a jaguar show, then proceeded to viciously
attack a human. Even though the man survived, the jaguar, who
had previously terrorized the village of Limbu, was killed by the
forest warden.

While ducks are generally considered safe animals to be around, they can be very territorial and have been known to attack humans in defense of their nest and chicks. This hungry duck probably mistook the lady’s finger for worms and didn’t hesitate to have a go at her hand. Even though we aren’t sure how badly this girl was hurt, one thing is for sure — she is still very much alive, probably laughing at this photo.

This photo was taken in the tiger’s territory of Badaling Wildlife Park
in China. The woman in the photo got into an argument with her
partner and probably forgot where she was, because as soon as
she got out of the car, she was attacked by a tiger who was
guarding his territory. The woman survived, as two more

This photo is a perfect example of instant karma. Sure, they managed to kill a massive black bear, but one thing they forgot is that bears become very aggressive when their family members are threatened. The bear lurking in the background probably followed the smell of the one killed by the hunters and came for revenge just at the right time as they were proudly displaying their “trophy.”

Killing animals surely is a bad idea, but posing with them is far
worse for obvious reasons. Other predators are always going to be
able to smell the blood of the kill and maybe even decide to pay you
a visit. In this case, the hunter showing off his kill drew out a
dangerous mountain lion, which we’re sure didn’t hesitate to attack
to get an easy and filling meal.

Going on a safari can be almost as dangerous as it is fulfilling and
exciting, especially if you get the attention of a 10-ton animal such
as an elephant. They certainly mean no harm, but there have been
cases when elephants walked or sat on cars, crushing the people
inside. We aren’t sure whether this particular one in the photo only
used her trunk to assess the situation, or proceeded to harm the
people, but we hope for the best!

Even though this “attack” is more hilarious than tragic, it still
deserves a spot on our list. After all, you don’t see a dog urinating
on a human every day. We aren’t sure whether it is the red tank top
that confused him, or something else, but one thing is for sure –
that owner was furious! |

This picture shows Roy Horn from the famous Siegfried and Roy Las
Vegas magic duo, which used dangerous wild animals as part of
their act. However, during one of the shows, one of their white tigers
attacked him, leaving him partially paralyzed. In spite of this, Roy
fought against the tiger’s suggested euthanization, shifting the
blame to himself and explaining that the animal attacked him
because it was ill. Roy managed to win, but the tiger’s survival
essentially meant the death of the magic show.

We can imagine that having an octopus glued to their backs is a lot
of people’s nightmare. Try to picture this gentleman’s surprise
when he realized he had something other than salt stuck on his
skin after a swim in the ocean. Luckily, this particular kind isn’t
dangerous, and they managed to pull it off without harming the
man.
