The Thrill and Fear of Living Among Predators in Wild

1000010129.jpg image is mine.

While living in the wild Sometimes I wonder which animal will scare the hell out of me when I encounter it in real life and I can't think of any other animal other than lion.


I have encountered some of scary animals too close like from some meter away in a broad daylight and even as close to my room door.

Since we're living in the middle of a jungle surrounded by mountains covered with trees is the home of many animals like fox, coyote, lion etc.

The only thing I've not seen yet around my place is a lion or leopard and I hope I won't ever encounter any of it because no one wants to be their dinner.


When I encountered coyote in daylight

The first time we moved to hometown was in 2021 and I was new in this place and didn't knew much about creatures living in surrounding places

Next to 3-4 homes I saw a coyote walking to the jungle side and we both made an eye contact with each other that kind of scared me as I was seeing it for the first time.

Coyote Surprise visit at home every single night

So it was about last year in winters while everyone else in the home was asleep there was something hitting the door outside and I as a night owl was always awake

And I used to run for the door to see if there's some thief or any danger for the family but that thing was just too fast

It was happening everyday and I was scared too like it wasn't normal at all and could be some ghost like thing.

But than one day coyote itself found a way to get into home and it showed up at my door while I was using mobile lying on bed.

The moment I saw that coyote I was like shocked and reacted quickly.. next second, it ran away and never showed up again at my home. They were just searching for food and hunt at night as it was about 3am.


Encounter with Scorpio's every other day

Everyone knows how venomous Scorpio can be especially the black one's do carry that venom in sting

And all I've seen many of scorpio just inside my home hanging on the wall or running from the floor and I do kill them the moment I find out any Scorpio.

They seems to be very lazy at first like they'll be still at one place on the wall and when you clap them with a slipper you should use maximum force or else they sting and move so fast once they're alert and disturbed.


wrapping up...

Living in the wild isn't that easy when you're surrounded by predators and animals that could easily harm you in the most surprising way but so far there's not a single bad incident that happened in our hometown so I'm glad about it.

I grew up hearing stories from grandpa encountered with lion on the road and in the village and it all seems scary but quite of an adventure I maybe want to experience for once.

Let's see how many of you have encountered with such scary animals... Feel free to share your thoughts about it in the comments.

Coyotes and scorpions don't run in my area, but it's safe to assume I'd be scared of them too! I can speak for myself that I don't feel up to handling snakes, but I have my problems with bats too!

Oh no! I do not want to experience the sight of a lion if it's not in a zoo 🤣
I've never heard of a coyote before, must have been scary but maybe not as harmful as a lion from your story.

I wonder how the coyote got into your home at such a time (3am), that's scary! 😂

This is my first time hearing that an animal is bearing a Coyote. But I wonder how this animal got to your house around 3am.

Hah, our door is quite open like grills so there's space between it from where it came into home.

we took their homes and now they start entering our homes.
No doubt it's scary if all of a sudden any wild animal comes into our way.
Scorpion are not found in place where we live. But yes they are very dangerous as you told.

yea, our place was abandoned for years (30+) and than we arrived and started living about two years ago...

Scorpio will eventually leave. It's just seasonal thing imo.
