I can wrestle a modestly sized gator on land. I know I can catch certain nonvenomous snakes. Catching turtles and tortoises is pretty trivial, aside from snapping types.
Size really does count for a lot. So does a creature's inability to bend enough to bite you if you grab it a certain way. Finally, how willing are you to deal with some pain? Because you're probably gonna bleed.
I’m not going to fight an animal. I’m easily pinned down by a house cat and they’re pretty small.
That's a short conversation for me:
Anything medium/large-dog size and larger, no.
Below that it can certainly depend (like a venomous snake? We'll both lose. Eagle? Honestly no fucking clue. If I got a hit in, it would be done, but I'm not sure I'd get a strike in).
Def not a squirrel, those are too fast. Maybe a smallish-medium fish and prob a goat
Just the one hour?
I mean, just to cover the invertebrates part of the list would be several hours.
I'm going with a couple ants.
Bullet ants?
That sounds a little too dangerous for me
I grow out my nails for acoustic guitar so I technically always have a weapon for eye gouging. After blinding the beast I'd go after their throat as hard and as many times as I can while trying to keep distance where possible. It would never work on obvious human killing machines like tigers, gorrilas, bears, etcetera, but it might be helpful on a wolf or anything I can get my arms around. I'm getting older and don't have the stamina for fighting that I used to though so I'll probably die.
Maybe one of those giant constricting snakes. Do I get a shiv? If I have a shiv that snake is fucked. I like snakes by the way but I think it would be easy to fight one.
Then no... Hahajah
