Animals that are...creepy...

[TulipWoodpecker]

Disclaimer - I love animals and im fascinated by them! But truly some have an aura of menace about them...
To start, I give you the Shoebill Stork. Not dangerous or anything but...disconcerting.



Cats.

@cricketmum84

There's something about that picture that is just not right, I'm now firmly on OP's and your side regarding the shoebill creepiness.

There are some seriously weird creatures featured on this thread!!!

The barreleye

That’s a weird fish..

The camel spider.

Ugh.

These are all creepy AF 😫

@Mia184

The barreleye

Isn't this something from Thunderbirds?!

Clown spider google

< Clown crab spider (its not photoshopped)

Just be warned, if you do google 'camel spider' then you're going to see what happens when they bite you.

Why did I read this thread 😭😭 this is the stuff of horror movies 😨😨

I have nothing to add other than I now need counselling after reading this thread 🤣🤣🤣🤣

An antidote to all the horror.

Also, rainbow eucalyptus trees are very pretty.

Norbert is pretty creepy. 😂

@smolgose - I'm a dog lover but have always been a bit scared of bull terriers! Terrified of dobermans with cropped ears too, although have not met one irl - only ever seen in films with Nazi SS guards 😱

Butterflies, spiders and moths. They freak me out.

I think the shoebill is just lovely 💓

Bloody hell OP! I so wish I hadn't googled that - its terrifying!!!

[quote JustGiveMeGin]@LoveFall I just had to Google the murder hornet....they are quite beautiful in a scary way[/quote]
They do have a certain frightening beauty. But seriously, a 3 inch hornet?

They are called murder hornets because they can quickly murder an entire honeybee colony in no time. The decapitate the honeybees.

Our honeybees have no defense. Japanese honeybees have various behavioral defenses.

They are not only scary and creepy but they really, really don't belong in the Pacific Northwest.

tounge eating louse and stone curlew both freak me out.

The wasp that lays its eggs inside a spider and the young literally eat their way out of the spider (while alive).

Baboons - the ones near Cape Town are adept at opening car doors.

Owls have ridiculously long legs.

Bobbit worms. I think they must have inspired the Alien film, because they have that whole set of jaws coming out of another set of jaws thing going on. Horrifying. And they can grow to 3m. Argh.

That’s like a moray eel, two sets of jaws so if the first set don’t get you, the second one surely will!

For those who think the dik dik is bad, the Saiga antelope takes things to a whole new level.
