I’ve been bitten by a horse, snake (twice, years apart), cat, red back spider, dog (twice, weeks apart). What’s your count?

    A big darn dragonfly. It took quite a large chunk out of my arm, and it ended up badly infected in no time

        That was in Crete, I don’t know why it attacked but I still have a mark where it got me. It just randomly landed on my arm. It was almost as long as my arm, and I showed my little brother.

        Look at this thing, that shouldn’t be there

        And then I yeeted it off of my with a slap. It took quite a punch and did not follow after that.

        Dunno know about Cretan dragons, but I’ve never even heard of someone getting bit in the South (US). I’m around them all time.

      I had no idea they would/could bite humans. Think you could share a link to the species or something?
