Some important facts of life

Grizzly Bear, LoungingImage via Wikipedia
Here's some really vital, possibly life-saving answers to questions which you always wanted to ask but were too shy to. Like how big would a grizzly bear look if it stood right alongside me? Or do I really need to be afraid if a salt-water crocodile sneaked up on me? The tiger, the king of the jungle, that creature all those conservationists keep shouting about? How big is it anyway?

The answers are all here in the link below:

Really! There's a graphic to show a 6 foot man alongside each of these rarely-encountered-by-a-person-in-person-who-lived-to-tell-about-it-creatures. You can hear how they would sound so that you can plan your panicked run beforehand. Then there are the vital stats of height and weight just in case you feel like challenging one of them to a wrestling match and also world maps to show where an appropriate arena might be found. For the purpose of choosing a wrestling match opponent, can I suggest leaving the giant squid out of contention? The nearest thing in size for us to relate to was decided by NGC to be a school bus!

I won't hold you up any longer now. Try it. It's way too much fun. I spent a significant portion of my young life down there already!
