10. Paratrooper & the Eagle A paraglider almost had his life
cut short by some crazy wild birds! The paraglider’s name is Vladimir Tsar’kov,
an adrenaline junkie from Russia who was taking his first paragliding trip over the Himalayas.
For those who don't know, paragliding is when you basically float to the ground using a large
parachute contraption. It’s like hang gliding, but not really. You use the parachute instead of
holding on to an oversized paper airplane. While Vladimir was paragliding through the
beautiful Himalaya mountains in Nepal, he was attacked by a pair of vicious eagles!
It's unclear whether they purposely attacked him, but either way both eagles rammed straight into
his parachute, causing him to freefall. One of the eagles got tangled up in his
parachute cords and rendered it useless. He was spiraling towards the ground at blistering speed,
in danger of losing all control. But luckily, Vladimir managed to
reach his emergency parachute and slow down his descent. He still crashed into a tree - instead
of gently landing on the ground, but at least he didn't make a pancake out of himself! As for the
eagle that got in his way, it was still tangled in his parachute ropes when he reached the ground.
It was alive, and to be honest, probably just as frightened and confused as Vladimir.
9. Elephant Rampage On the outskirts of a
Chinese city, a herd of 15 elephants went on a wild rampage in the summer of 2021.
They left a trail of destruction over 300 miles (483 km) long across southern China. The experts
say it's all because the male pack leader got lost and led the herd into uncharted territory.
The elephants were first spotted moving towards the city of Kunming, in the Yunnan province after
breaking out of a nature preserve. They got so close to the city that officials had to block the
road using trucks, while the elephants wandered through the countryside destroying farmland.
It was such a catastrophe that over 76 squad cars were used to try and push the giant herd
of animals back into the forest. Wildlife officers were flying drones to monitor the progress of the
elephants, with over 360 people involved in an effort to divert them away from the city.
When their rampage began, there were actually 16 elephants. But then two of them turned around and
went home and a baby was born during the march. This brought the number down to 15. The small town
of Eshan was shut down with residents warned to stay inside while the elephants wandered through
the streets, breaking into barns, eating out of trash cans, and tearing up crops. By the time the
elephants finally got back on track and started looping back home, they had done an estimated
$1.1 million in damage. 8. Canadian Bear Attack
In Canada, a man is lucky to be alive after he was brutally attacked by a giant black bear.
His name is Richard Wesley, from the province of Ontario. He was out hunting near the Fire
River when he spotted the huge bear no more than about 100 feet (30 m) away from him. Naturally,
he took out his phone and started filming. The bear was meandering around completely unaware
that Richard had even snuck up on it. But then the two got very close, as the bear turned,
it realized it was staring into the face of a human. Richard tried to make himself look bigger,
waving his bow around and making a lot of noise – but this only made the bear
angrier. In the shocking footage taken by Richard, you can see the bear charging at him
and jumping right onto his chest, the bear’s massive paws outstretched to do maximum damage.
The only reason Richard is still alive is that he was able to put his bow into the bear’s mouth
as it tried to rip his throat out with its huge teeth. It then became a wrestling match,
with the Canadian man struggling for about 15 seconds before the bear finally gave up
and took off in the other direction. It was like something you would see in a cartoon,
but it happened in real life! Richard didn't even suffer any injuries except for a bruised
elbow where the bear tossed him onto the ground. Amazingly, he didn’t even break his glasses!
7. The Carry-On Snake Authorities in India were shocked
when an X-ray scan revealed that a passenger was carrying something unusual in their luggage.
That something happened to be one of the most venomous snakes in the world, and definitely
illegal to try and bring on a plane! It wasn't even in the guy’s suitcase that would be put
under the plane, but in his carry-on luggage. It happened at the Cochin Airport, with the
passenger trying to catch a flight to Abu Dhabi. The snake was a juvenile Indian krait, something
so venomous that just one bite can kill a person. The passenger was immediately arrested, though
he was later released when the police became convinced that he had not brought the snake on the
plane on purpose. After all, what would the point of that even be? I guess he could have unleashed
the snake on the plane and watched the chaos unfold, but that seems like a plan that could
backfire. If the snake bit him, it’s not like there’s any anti-venom stashed in the cockpit.
Instead, the man insisted that he purchased a bag of potatoes from a farmer just before
his trip. The snake must have stowed away in the potatoes, then made its way into
his luggage at home. He’s extremely lucky that he didn't reach into his bag to grab something
while traveling from between his house and the airport, otherwise he probably would have wound
up in the morgue instead of the airport jail. What would you do if you found a venomous snake
in your luggage? Let us know in the comments below and if you’re liking

6. Alligator Crime On Buru Island in Indonesia,
a young girl was bathing in the river with her friends. Her name was Suci Ramadhani,
just eight years old. According to what Indonesian officials told news outlets,
she was then ambushed by a giant crocodile and literally eaten
alive in front of her terrified friends. The other little girls could do nothing
except scream in horror as their friend moved deeper and deeper into the crocodile's mouth.
All the screaming alerted adults nearby, who rushed onto the scene with spears and tried to
prevent the little girl from being consumed. But by the time they reached the crocodile,
the only part of the little girl still visible was her head inside the crocodile’s throat.
The villagers did manage to kill the croc with their spears, but it was too late, she was already
gone. They didn't even find the child’s remains in its belly. Her remains were found later floating
in the water. The saltwater crocodile simply ate her up and spat her out, almost as if for fun.
Sadly, this is just part of life here. The river is known to be infested with crocodiles, and there
have been at least two different attacks in just the last couple of years. These opportunistic
predators are notorious for sneaking below the surface of the water and attacking bathers and
fishermen alike, preferring children because they’re easier to eat and less of a threat.
5. A Grinchy Raccoon
A 70-year-old woman was getting into the Christmas spirit. It was early December
and time to hang the Christmas lights. But as she was hanging the lights, she became the victim of
a rampaging raccoon! We don't really know what exactly the raccoon's motive was here.
Maybe it had just watched the Grinch and was upset about the Christmas lights.
Whatever the case, Donna Sanginario described the events of that day as the worst nightmare of her
life. She said that during the attack, both her and the raccoon were screaming insanely loud, loud
enough to wake the dead. Oh yeah, and she also admitted that she thought she was going to die.
This traumatic attack took place in Massachusetts. Donna had no warning that the raccoon was coming
except for a strange noise that she heard behind her. When she turned, the raccoon was standing
10 feet (3 m) away and leering at her. Normally, raccoons don't just attack people for no reason.
When they see people, they run away. But in this case, the raccoon closed those 10
feet (3 m) in a second and jumped on Donna, sinking its little raccoon teeth into her.
The raccoon showed no signs of giving up either. It bit, scratched, and screamed as
Donna tried to get away. Luckily, the elderly woman managed to get the raccoon in a headlock
and literally squeeze until she heard its neck snap. The animal fell silent, Dana dropped it,
and she thought that was the end. But much to her amazement, the raccoon got up and walked away
as if nothing had happened. She herself went to the local emergency room, got some rabies
and tetanus shots, and went home with a few scrapes and one heck of a good Christmas story.
4. Moose Attacks Tourists Disaster struck at the Zyuratkul National
Park in Russia just last November when a moose attacked a little girl. Before we go any further,
keep in mind that a fully grown moose can be over 800 pounds (363 kg). And that's exactly how big
this one was when it rampaged against a group of tourists who were trying to feed the animal.
At first, the moose seemed totally docile. The enormous, truly monstrous creature didn't seem
to mind the dozen or so tourists crowding it, taking pictures, and patting it on its nose.
But like most wild animals, the moose soon got tired of being ogled at by the humans.
The little girl standing in front of it took the brunt of its sudden attack! She was booted
by its powerful front legs so hard that she flew forward and skidded across the ground!
The crowd, which moments ago had been so fond of the moose,
then screamed at it and chased it away back into the forest. The little girl came out
okay. She was wearing a big winter jacket that likely padded the force of the kick.
And the tourists learned a valuable lesson: don't play with the wildlife!
3. Wild Boar Bites a Cop Authorities in Hong Kong have launched a hunt
for the maniac who bit one of their officers. But this maniac isn't a person, it's a wild boar. Hong
Kong has been plagued by wild boars for years. They get lost in the subway system, they loiter
in the streets and get fed by local residents, and they are generally just inconvenient. But just a
little while ago, a police officer was bit by one of these wild boars. Now that a cop has been
attacked, authorities have launched into action to track down and get rid of the pesky animals.
Prior to this attack, the rule when dealing with wild boars was to capture them and bring them to a
remote area. But that has done absolutely nothing to stop them from roaming around hiking trails and
trying to bite people. In Hong Kong, wild boars have wandered into police stations, malls, and
even disrupted flights at the airport. Authorities will now be euthanizing the boars to try and bring
their numbers down, and mainly because one cop got bit and now he’s sour about it.
2. A Big Cat Fight For the first time ever,
scientists captured footage of something nobody even knew was possible. A hidden camera in the
Maya Biosphere Reserve in Guatemala captured an ocelot sitting down at a watering hole to
have a drink. From the darkness of the forest behind the ocelot, an even bigger cat comes
into the frame and ambushes the smaller feline. The bigger cat is a jaguar. It takes only one
bite for the jaguar to kill the ocelot, then it slinks off with the other cat in its jaws.
Scientists have suspected that bigger cats will prey on smaller cats in the wild,
but it's never been proven. Ocelot remains have been found before in jaguar feces,
suggesting jaguars eat smaller cats – but this is the first time that anyone’s ever seen it.
Jaguars, enormous predatory jungle cats that can grow to about 250 pounds (113 kg), hunt ocelots
like they would hunt rabbits. And ocelots are pretty big themselves, ranging from between 18 to
44 pounds (8-20 kg). Both are cats, both eat fish and frogs, monkeys and rodents. But apparently,
jaguars have absolutely no discretion when it comes to what they eat. It’s really crazy because
according to Daniel Thornton from Washington State University, predator-on-predator interactions are
rare in the wild. Predators almost always stay out of each other’s way. This attack
could be due to dwindling resources, water scarcity, and reduction in natural habitat.
1. Jackal Rampage Just about 40 people
recently became the victims of one of the most bizarre animal attacks in history. A jackal
went on a wild rampage through five villages in India, leaving dozens of people injured,
including women and children. According to one resident of the Jamira village,
they were working on their farm when the animal came out of nowhere and started biting them.
The attack was so sudden that the farmers were left helpless. When it was finally over,
they had to limp their way to the hospital for treatment, leaving behind them a trail of blood.
And this was only one attack. The beast went from village to village, causing mayhem
and biting every person it caught in the street. It didn't kill anyone, since it was just a jackal,
but it did maim at every opportunity. Villagers finally banded together and ambushed the jackal,
putting its reign of terror to an end. But this unprecedented attack still left 40
people injured – and by something that's basically just an oversized, mangy dog.
Thanks for watching! What’s the craziest animal attack you’ve ever seen with your own two eyes?
