Would you survive an animal attack?

June 11th, 2008

How do you fancy your chances against a bear? A lion? Or perhaps an ordinary housecat? If you’re not sure, you’ll be pleased to hear the good folks at Their Toys are hosting an interactive guide to forecasting your chances of surviving an animal attack. I really don’t know why a sex toy shop is hosting an animal survival indicator.  Allegedly the results are based on known survival rates, so there’s some science in there somewhere.  Maybe.

Being a skinny lad with no experience of firearms and a fairly ambivalent approach to death, I didn’t score very highly. In fact, the odds are one in four of me losing to my pet cat. Seems fair, anyone who’s seen my cat knows you don’t mess with that 16lb tabby.
