This is a question When Animals Attack

I once witnessed my best friend savaged near to death by a flock of rampant killer sheep.

It's a kill-or-be-killed world out there and poor Steve Irwin never made it back alive. Tell us your tales of survival.

Baboon attack
I was doing a bit of utterly bourgeois gap year 'travelling' (we were all young once) around Africa with my then girlfriend. We were at Victoria Falls, on the Zambia side, and very nice it was too. There were a fair few baboons wandering about but we'd been told not to feed them, and not to corner them, and then all would be well.

So, me and the missus wander off to a little platform of rock that was slightly off the beaten track, but which jutted out into the abyss and had a breath-taking view. We were having a litte cheezy romantic moment, when suddenly a full-size male baboon clambers up the cliff in front of us, thereby cornering himself between us and the edge. He's not happy about this, so he stands up on his hind legs and roars, properly bellows, at us. When stood up he was taller than me (and I'm 6'4"). Needless to say we crapped ourselves and ran screaming back onto the main pathway. Of course, the baboon didn't deign to follow us, so as far as everyone else was concerned, we wandered off for a smooch and then came back screaming "BABBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON!!" and running like our lives depended on it..
