I've also been bitten by horses, horseflies, dogs on many occasions, cats, rats, spiders, fish when trying to remove hooks, lizards, parakeets, ticks, fleas, mosquitos, lice, roosters and once, at the age of ten, when we were on an outing to the tide pools in Tomales Bay, by an octopus that I found and had been told not to handle. This list, of course, does not include stingings.
Seems like a lot of times, I guess I never developed a fear of animals, nor, obviously, they of me.
