Death and Walk about

Today a friend of mine send me a link to a website of dangerous creatures lurking in the outback (http://blog.hotelclub.com/the-10-most-dangerous-animals-in-australia/).  I developed new found respect for the Aussies and the death they seemingly confront at every corner, whether from forked tongue or cephalopod.  I started to think about all the dangerous animals I have encountered and I realized I had had some pretty dangerous encounters as well...

Yes, I know.  Thats my sweetie, Topi.  That hairy pissed-off snarl of my arthritic overweight bacon loving angel is about all you could hope for in a female.  Topi is a giving animal too, she would love nothing more than to present you with the freshly dead mole, which she ripped apart with her teeth.  My first survival story, spending numerous evenings with the beady eyes of a killing killer who kills trained on me from the foot of my bed- and now I'm supposed to fear what again?

The second deadly wild beast: Klaus of swedish genus.  Though moderately tempered Klaus's are know to be dangerous when confronted with cheese.  Usually armed with cross bows (true story) the beast is known to constantly be stalking food, rumor has it that a Klaus actually has 2 stomachs one for dinner and one for dessert and is always hungry. Usually a Klaus can be tracked by the large amounts of fur it leaves in the bathroom in addition to the fact that it stomps, grunts and makes "mah" sounds constantly. The klaus is a dangerous beast when roused: fact but with constant walks, snowboarding, and belly rubs a Klaus can make a fine roommate.

Finally, this.  The most terrifying of all.  Ger-bear.  Only the cobra and Ger-bear can increase in size to intimidate enemies, which I can personally attest to.  The Ger-bear is most dangerous when anything comes between her and her cubs.  Don't let this photo fool you, behind the flowers, cookies, smile, and motherly love is a marauding bear.  Similar to a rattle snake the Ger-bear has a warning and its 62 missed phone calls.  If the warning goes unheeded, Godspeed to the netherworld my compatriot.  However, fear not my reader for within my genetic make-up lies the strength and killer instinct of Ger-bear which is why I fear nothing the outback could send against me.
