And for Pete's sake, if you do come across such a beast don't try to take a selfie with one! Note to self. Bears don't like selfies.

If your arachnophobia leads you to dive into a body of water at the site of our eight legged friends be forewarned - they appear to be able to swim! Just when you thought it was safe to go into the water.

Believe it or not, over 250 people have died taking selfies since 2011. What. The. Hell? Seriously people. Watch where you are going. Look at the world around you not at your phone/camera! Does this mean the iPhone is responsible for more human deaths than any land animal?

Well, it would be if there was an actual wild boar stalking someone instead individuals frightened by the sound of nearby cars going over a cattle guard. Not a wild boar: Edited by user Monday, July 08, 2019 4:21:50 AM(UTC)  | Reason: Not specified

Except, you really don't if you're a rational human being. More likely, is facing potential harm due to the idiotic actions of a gun toting lunatic who sees shadows and thinks shoot first ask questions later is a good strategy. Move on, quickly, if you see this guy camped next to you.
