42 Times Nature Made Us Say NOPE” (WARNING: This List Might Be Too Scary For You)”
Not everything in nature is as beautiful or as hilarious as we're mostly used to. It has a dark side, too, and I'll completely understand if this list by Bored Panda forces you to build a pillow-fort in your living room and avoid going outside for a week.
From a mama centipede protecting its babies to a wasp colony building a nest around a discarded doll, these pictures feature some of the scariest things Mother Earth has to offer. Scroll down to test how brave you are, and vote for your favorite entries.

Brave Patriot Bald Eagle Takes Down Wimpy Canadian Goose
There is nothing wimpy about a Canadian goose! But size and talons make the difference.
They are shitty birds though. Literally. they come to Sweden over the summer and shit on every available fucking beach they come across.
Load More Replies...Shockingly....the Eagle was armed and the Goose was not. #canadavsUSA
Thank you for that. I was about to correct them as well.
Load More Replies...I'm Canadian and I can tell you full well that Those geese are not wimpy. tell that to my broken arm when I was a kid. apparently goslings are not that cute at least when moms around.
Never had a personal experience with those geese, yet (LUCKILY!). But I also steer clear of them, whenever we cross paths... in Europe.
Load More Replies...They are Canada Geese, not Canadian Geese....the geese do not have a nationality!
I've seen this shot before and this is NOT how this story ended....the goose broke free and the Eagle evently took off...Canada geese can hold their own! http://globalnews.ca/news/2745222/battle-between-american-eagle-and-canada-goose-caught-on-camera/
Canadian Geese are scary giant Bald Eagles are even worse
This is a perfect representation of the "cool kid" school bully vs the "average Joe" new kid...
Yes Canadian Geese are tough too, and VERY large but the Eagle is much quicker and has that sharp Bill. That bird is so majestic. Great choice for the National Bird
BAHAHAHAHAHA. The eagle looks like he didn't even take down the goose for any reason whatsoever!
I remember being at a zoo or a park once and the geese did not like me. They chased me and tried to bite me. One of them actually did bite me. Yet, I have never been bitten by an eagle...lol.
Anyone that's been chased or attacked by one knows a Canada Goose is no wimp. https://youtu.be/0OCKYWBSnFI
Lol. Eagles are more ours than it is the Americans. And..yes...the goose isn't wimpy at all. If you believe that then challenge it to a fight...fair fight...i don't think you will fare well
To the person that put the picture and the posting up" Eagle takes down wimpy Canadian goose". You are a stupid , stupid person.
Don't insult anything Canadian. You will live to regret it. You are a very stupid person that put the picture up.
I am certain that it was a joke. I mean, I never take it personal when people rag on/insult Americans...whether as a joke or in all seriousness (i find that,right now it is the cool thing to insult America and its citizens). life is too short,and the world is too full of hate to be defensive all the time. I figure I am a human/global citizen first,American second. we don't get to choose where we are born,we do get to choose to be good people and laugh at the little things. now, if someone would maliciously malign a country, or negatively sterotype,well,that isn't cool. I just don't believe that the person who titled this, was mocking Canada. Seriously, who in the world can hate Canada, that place and its people are awesome.
Load More Replies...I agree geese aren't wimpy. If you've never seen them in real life . They are majestic.
There's nothing patriotic about a bald eagle. It's a bird. Stop with the nationalism BS.
I agree, I'm not knocking those who are proud of being a citizen of their home country,but when it borders on fanaticism and fervour, then it becomes a problem (to me at least,and,I suspect, to you). I don't even care about all the flags of nations,and the like. nationalism ,anywhere, is a problem (at least the way I define it,where one is so rabid that they deign to believe they are better than any other country because of where they were born. nothing wrong with being proud of one's culture...but the rabid xenophobia we are seeing is a very big problem. I imagine that the bald eagle is thinking, what the hell is America? you mean that place that allows others to hunt us to extinction, then has the gall to throw us on its emblems and currency? yeah I'll pass..for me and my eagle brethren, home is not America, home is where we happen to land😉)
Load More Replies...Way to go eagle! There's about 50,000,000 more so you better get moving onto the next one.
id rather say stronger patriot bald eagle bullies weaker canadian goose...so that eagle is in fact just a bully....
Hey!! I'm from Canada, and believe me Canadian Geese are not wimpy! they will chase you and beat you up, if you go to close to them. But a eagle is a predator and a Canadian goose isn't. The eagle is used to hunting and the goose doesn't have much predators in the sky, so they don't need to avoid anything really.
The original video this shot comes from..shows the goose actually chasing the eagle off after the eagle attacked it
The most wretched animals in existence. "Canada" geese. Bah.
Load More Replies...But after the eagle was stepping on it, it ran away. Talk about brains vs. brawl
Or... "crazed deranged American eagle had no gun so used talons to murder an innocent Canadian Goose"....
I don't even have to tell you what is wrong with that comment

I was expecting it to be another exaggerated post, now I wish it was.
Same here.. damn my curiosity 😑
There was so much here that I didn't know , & , now wish I didn't !
Nature is nature... In all it's beauty and horror.
Well said
This was disgusting and fascinating at the same time.
I have to watch Winnie the Pooh, now or I can never sleep again...
U right. I can't even finish scrolling down.
Me, either!
ALL KINDS OF NOPE still pretty cool but now I fear the outside world 😮
If this list is too scary for you, you're too scared of life.
You'd already know most of those if you were a nature documentary fan. Nothing exceptional there, but I stick to my guns when saying "if it has less than 2 and more than 4 kill it with extreme prejudice if it gets close"
#8. Disgusting the creature in the mouth of the fish
Nope. Just...all the nopes.
