When animals attack...I once, accidentally, punched a racoon.
It had wandered into my tent, I was half asleep and thought it was a mate pratting around. There was a yelp and then all hell broke loose.
What have you been attacked by?

Still don't know how it got away...I was riding my motorbike back home one day when this pigeon SHOT out of the hedgerow right in front of me. I didn't even have enough time to swerve, but I didn't feel even the tinyest bump so I wondered it I'd hit it.
Looking in my mirror I saw this huge cloud of feathers, and thought "Yup. I hit it." So I turned round and went back.
When I reached the dazed bird it was just getting to its feet somewhat unsteadily, with a totally plucked naked stomach. I could see bits of feather stuck in the motorbike's drive chain.
Damn thing must have gone THROUGH the back wheel and got scalped... how it lived, how it even made it through intact escapes me, but after ten minutes or so it flew off apparently non the worse for wear.
Bet it was cold though.
