Anybody see the video clips of the whale that attacked a bunch of Japanese
boaters?
It's been on MSNBC this morning.

Apparently the whale got trapped in a bay and several people in small
boats
were trying to herd it back to open water. The whale attacked, flipped
one
boat upside down (the guy was killed) and attacked some other boats as
well.

The Japanese better stop hunting them. Word is spreading in the whale
communities.

Wow!

Even though they are beautiful animal wild creatures are unpredictable.
Dolphins have been know to ram into humans and killing them.

Do you know that more people are killed by captive deer than any other
creature?

this sounds like one of those "facts" that are repeated over and over so
many times that people actually being to believe it.

Did you know 74% of all statistics are made up?

Tim,
You saw a very vicious deer attack, but both the deer and the hunter
walked away. One can believe anything one wants to, and is the reason
we see so many urban legends running rampant, but if you look at the
real statistics of animal related fatalities:

http://www.flmnh.ufl.edu/fish/sharks...riskanimal.htm

Deer attacks are not even listed.

As I said, it sounded like a fact if it is repeated enough, people will
believe it.

Agreed Mr. Smithers.

I posted that because deer arn't "Bambi" they CAN be dangerous. Here
in 1994 a local kid was approaching his wounded deer, and wastrampled
to death.

I know it's not going to be on a listing of viscous animal attacks,
but it's proven. Deer may be cute, but they can be deadly.
