Medicine is so cool.

More like a slush of gastric acid and whatever you ate, but in principle, I agree. :)

This is my main reason for only having sex with trees. Also I feel sorry for the animals that are produced and processed in an industrialized fashion. 🤷‍♀️

Tell that to my box of coconut cookies, my belly and The Office.

Cool!

Thanks for telling your story and including your thoughts and feelings too! :D I too have gotten lost when I was living in Japan. Exact same situation timewise. I started my hike too late and didn’t realize how much quicker it gets dark in the forested mountains. And the Japanese wilderness is grotesquely eerie: really thick bushes, trees so tightly standing you can’t walk in between them, which makes you feel trapped. Fortunately, I didn’t encounter any beasts, but my heart was beating very fast, because I had heard stories about the Japanese bears tsukinowaguma attacking people.

I had no idea what the bunyip is, so thank you for introducing me to it! What an amazing piece of folklore! How close up did you come to the crocs?

We are also taught here in Sweden that moose can be ridiculously dangerous if they are walking with a calf. I wonder what our bears are on that “aggressivity scale”, compared to blacks and grizzlies(grizzlys?).

Oh my god! They are absolutely adorable! Thank you for sharing!

So I need to read up on coyotes. They are obviously a problem in the states, but to me, being from Europe, they just look like undomesticated dogs.

Oh my god look at those ears!!! 😭❤️ Sorry for diminishing the problems they pose, but I’m from Europe and don’t have to endure them… just look at them xD

What did Attenborough say about the meth heads? Also, holy shit that must’ve been nerve wrecking… How did the park ranger save you? Was the bear killed?

Wow, great description!!! I would totally have done the same: turn the chair and absolutely not relax xD

I hope you were at least able to… relieve yourself? xD Regardless, what an amazing close encounter!!!

Amazing! And I’m glad you made it back! What was the occasion/situation? Were you diving or just walking in shallow waters or what?

spirited yipfest This is my new love language.

Awww I so envy people because apparently EVERYBODY EXCEPT ME is entitled to see foxies just not me. :(((

They big, they stink, they amazing. :) <3

But seriously, I just read in this book to which I have linked above, that Transylvania has the biggest wolf pack in all of Europe. Poland being pretty close to Romania.

Nothing ventured, nothing gained. 🤷

Cool! I can sort of seal the deal on that the seals (sorry) aren’t dangerous, but orcas? They look ruthless! Which is my prejudice, of course… How did you encounter them? :)
