Claiming number one in first post! The Black Mamba! I met one once before and another time one went into hotel kitchen where friends where staying. Things are mental aggressive with no comprehension of fear or self preservation when it encounters creatures in the wild it perceives as threats...and that's almost anything that moves.
Stats:
>18km per hour land speed
>Longest and fastest snake in Africa
>20min for poison to kill a human
>100% kill ratio for centuries as anti-venom wasn't developed until recently
>It can raise half it's body up in to the air and is excellent at reaching up trees.
I live in France. The worst animal I can face while /out/ is nothing.
Nothing will try to kill you here. I've spent days and days in forest where wolves and bears are known to live in, but I still feel safer /out/ than in a big city.
Pic : One of the best place I've ever slept in. In the French Alps, it's supposed to be a good place to find wolves.

That picture looks super comfy. Hope I can visit there one day.

We have some big ass alligators out west a little bit when you get into the swamps. But most places I see the gators, they just hang around waiting for you to catch some fish and give them a snack. I still don't like standing too close to the water's edge when an 8'+ gator decides to go under the murky water and you can't tell where he is.
I guess we also have sharks in the ocean, but whatever. I would be more worried about getting raped by jellyfish than the sharks. And then god knows what kind of snakes are in the Everglades, especially with the invaisive species. Also some big ass spiders and bugs, but they aren't aggressive or anything.

This really was one of the more beautiful place I've ever seen. I can't describe the feeling you get inside this basin, you can't see anything outside it and you feel really really small (and you are. I know it's hard to tell looking at the pic but it's like a 30min walk to get to the bottom of the basin, and 2 hours to get to the top of that peak you can see)
>>678597
That's kinda how I feel in the Rockies by 13,000'+ peaks. You think "Oh, I'm just going to walk right over there!" And it ends up being an hour or two instead of 20min like I thought.
I am in Ontario, Canada. If I went north west, a mama grizzly encounter would probably be a bad one. Grizzlies will not always bother you, and if they do, they will not always kill you, or even injure you, but I would hate to be in a mother grizzly bear's vicinity.

In Ireland maybe weever fish, jellyfish, or a pissed off bull. Nothing too intense.
In New York, black bears, moose, few harmful insects.. If you're upstate as long as you have a gun you'll be fine.

Really? What the hell? I would fuck with them all night long. Then confront them the next morning as they are all excited from their newfound "evidence" and tell them it was all you. Then tell them they are wasting their time.
Not saying that 100% chance there is no "Bigfoot" but I think if somebody does finally catch good evidence or shoot one, it will be a hunter or seasoned woodsman. Not some goofballs from /x/ who want to be just like Bobo from that retarded TV show.

>>678896
QLD, its mainly brown snakes and red-belly blacks, but there are taipans around.

Forgot to mention foxes, also if you had a nice Irish wolfhound or maybe a jack Russell or irish terrier it would be a good addition to your trips and an added safety.
>>678879
its happened twice. one time was in Shenandoah national park. a place so crowded that if you do the math and you spread all their overnight visitors out evenly throughout the year and then divided by the parks square footage there would be 2.4 campers per square mile every day of the year...... if bigfoot exists .... your not going to find him there. its so densely populated id be surprised to find bear there . ps. i go camping to get away from people, not taunt drunken armed rednecks who would love to shoot an animal to prove its real
Swefag here.
Pretty decent country to /out/ in(like the rest of the nordic countrys). Only one poisonous snake, rather low chances of running into bears or wolves.
I'd say that you run a higher risk of running into wild boars followed by elk. Would not want the tusks of a wild boar in my thigh. Being chased by a pissed off elk isn't very fun either.
Worst animals? Why pic related, of course..

Snakes, Cone shells, fucking so many things.
You can die from stinging tree for fuck's sake. Like nettles, but not as weak as piss.
I see Taipans multiple times a week, and have witnessed them rear and strike (residual nervous system) after being dead 8 days.
>>678596
Not from the same place, but yeah. They're big, powerful, and don't give half of a fuck.
>>678578
Wild hogs. 200kg juggernauts with big teeth that scare easily.
Also the black mamba is named for the inside of its mouth. Its outer skin is not black but green, brown, or gray.

276 here, home of the woodbooger.
Cougars were unheard of a decade ago. Now sightings all the time. Forest service set rattlers out in the Jefferson National Forest. No idea why. I worked for a gas company drilling wells and the forest service told us about them and how it was illegal to kill them if we ran across any.
We have black bears, but they will leave you alone if you leave them alone.

I live on a mountain in Pennsylvania with a pretty decent rattlesnake and copperhead population. Don't see the snakes often except for on the rocks at the top. Deer kill the most people but that's not really their fault. Black bears and mountain lions in PA as well but they stay the fuck away from humans most of the time. A few deadly spiders but that's about all the danger I can thunk of
Welcome to Texas. No, there are no crocs in that lake.
>100% kill ratio for centuries as anti-venom wasn't developed until recently
Considering they don't have a 100% injection rate that is literally impossible. There are many snakes more dangerous than a Mamba. Mamba's aren't even that aggressive. I'd take my chances free handling a Mamba over any kind of adder or Taipan.
>>679291
12 km/hr, actually
Longest venomous snake in Africa (I'm assuming that's what OP meant)
look theres plenty of ausbros in this bread but really, probably the most common deadly creature is either a tiger/dugite or a white pointer. I mean i depends on what you;re doing. I dont fuck with up north because i cant afford to go up there yet but theres been enough shark sightings this season to be pretty cautious in the water down south WA.
But i have been up north and fuck irukanji, the cunts made me scared everytime i swam in those warm waters. let alone the crocs.
nah nigga for the most part im all good where i live, just some snakes that if you get to the hospital fast enough you'll be right.
Though that being said you only get a few chances with anitvenom right?
>>679761
actually in retrospect the white pointer comment is dumb. Theres fuck all fatalities but plenty of sightings. Its just because they've been pretty damn prevelant in my life, kids dad got taken in primary school and every like 3-5 years after that someones been eaten..
hell man id rather be eaten by a great white than a bronze whaler frenzy. not sure if anyone heard about it but a bloke got attacked south of here in esperance and lost both his hands and a leg from a bronzie. Fuck that noise i'd rather be bittern inh alf by a white pointer than be ripped apart by 3 or 4 sharks whilst you try to get to shore...Fuckkk man...cunts need to put their cray pots futher out fucking hell..

Probally feral cattle if the fiordland moose population is actually extinct.
They move like ghosts through the bush and often sneak up on you. When the bulls are rutting theyre pretty grouchy and will have a go at anything.
I'm going to go with the deer tick for the lower 48. Close second is the marmot's annoying as fuck screeching.

>>679862
that covers a pretty large area. I havent gone out east but to the west theres spokane and all the beauty Eastern washington has to offer. To the north is CDA and post falls. YOu could even go more norht but i havent been that far. Moscow falls are dope as fuck too. and to the south is grangeville and all the shitty little indian reservations that have good places to go. sorru im a little drunk right now baka

>>679761
Op here I have these in my country as well ha ha! I have seen one chow a small seal next to a boat. You think movies overdo it with blood in water after a attack but it's spot on. Just one moan and dead. We where out near a seal colony and there where 12 white pointers varying from 2 - almost 4 meters. Lions of the see in my opinion...also we have lions but not roaming around outside game reserves. We had one escape last year and had a nation wide fucking panic after it killed 2 donkeys or some shit...
This pic is in James Bay, pretty much right in downtown Victoria.
Apparently yesterday there was a cougar sighting on the trail I take to and from school every day.
>>680481
i live in new england and every few years there'll be a sighting of a mountain lion/cougar, but they don't breed and live around here. them is ambush predators and it completely changes the dynamic of our usual bear/coyote precautions
>>678578
worst i've come across is a coyote while i was fishing in bumfuck middle of nowhere, i just left it alone and it left me alone. was a pretty good sized one too, might have some domestic dog mixed in with it
>>678596
Was walking around with my dad in the woods once and for whatever reason turned around to see a fucking moose like 30 feet from us, just following us. Never realized just how big they were before then. Then it was easily spooped away by a jack russel terrier, but I know that isn't always the case . . .

Svalbards mostly climate research centers and people who manage the seed vault. Total populations about 2500 and almost none of them are permanent residents. Most people prefer to carry shotguns because poplar bears are super fucking common, especially now that a lot of ice flo is disappearing.
Fun fact: During the days of no sun teenagers and college students take floodlights outside of the towns and build igloos and pretty much party it up until the sun comes back. They set up perimeters around their camps and bring dogs to warn if polar bears are nearby, in which case they usually just fire off a couple warning shots.
Rattlesnakes, mountain lions, scorpions, black widows, brown recluse, and the elusive gila monster. Also coyotes, but they're pretty timid in my experience.
