Bison

Despite their seemingly benign appearance, these creatures are among the most perilous animals in North America. They are incredibly fast and can weigh up to 2,000 pounds. Bison are known to attack humans who get too close, and they can cause serious injuries or even death. It is crucial to maintain a safe distance from them and refrain from taking selfies in their presence.

Snakes

Even non-venomous snakes can bite, and venomous snakes can cause serious harm. Snakes are also incredibly fast and can strike in the blink of an eye. Trying to take a selfie with a snake is a recipe for disaster and should be avoided at all costs.

Camels

They may seem docile, but camels can be dangerous if they feel threatened. They are known to spit, kick, and bite, and their powerful jaws can cause serious injuries. Furthermore, camels have the potential to harbor illnesses that can spread to humans. It’s best to admire these majestic creatures from a safe distance and avoid taking selfies with them.

Tigers

These beasts are incredibly strong and can weigh up to 600 pounds. Tigers are also known to be unpredictable and can attack without warning. Taking a selfie with a tiger is extremely dangerous and should never be attempted – even if it would boost your Tinder profile.

If you want to take a selfie with an animal, choose a domesticated animal that is used to human interaction, and always prioritize safety over a social media post.
