These x Dangerous Animals Are Right Hither In West Virginia

I can't believe that these 10 dangerous animals accept all roamed these W Virginia hills! And some of them nonetheless do!

Animals have ever been a large part of my life, my family has a farm. Plain we didn't accept any of these wild animals, but we probably could have quit our 24-hour interval jobs and opened a zoo. Our farm has: v dogs, two outdoor cats, five carbohydrate gliders, iv adult goats and 5 baby goats, a pony, 3 horses (one of which is bullheaded), and chickens. I hope I didn't leave anyone out!

These ten dangerous animals will fascinate you!

1) Black Behave

The black bear is supposedly not very common in Westward Virginia. Only I have had my off-white share of black acquit sightings, more than than I would dub "uncommon."

2) Bobcat

The bobcat is unfortunately very uncommon in West Virginia. Too bad! It is so adorable. And probably really threatening in person.

3) Timber Rattlesnake

The Timber rattlesnake is a native venomous snake to West Virginia. *shivers*

iv) Coyote

The coyote is supposedly uncommon, just I tin't seem to forget seeing my German Shepherd chase one off of my farm one time! The coyote was fast like lightning, it beat out my dog off of the property and thankfully we never saw it again. (That we know of).

v) Mountain Lion

These fuzzy mount lions are no longer in Due west Virginia! Too bad, they expect so friendly! (Just kidding!)

6) Northern Copperhead

The Northern Copperhead is a native venomous snake to West Virginia. Even looking at this pic, I go the heebie jeebies!

7) Red Fox

The cherry fox is very common in Westward Virginia. Isn't this niggling one just beautiful? Looks can deceive!

8) Eastern Timber Wolf

This beautiful animate being is no longer in West Virginia! While information technology may be stunning, I'm sure information technology isn't too loving.

9) Wild boar

The wild boar is not actually native to West Virginia, it is exotic and is non all that mutual.

10) Gray Fob

The greyness fox is really very mutual to come across in W Virginia. No joke, my sis and I were pulling out of a McDonald'due south once, one that is in the centre of a metropolis, and a gray fox ran across the main route!

Some of the more unsafe animals of West Virginia are now completely extinct, such as the mammoth, behemothic acquit, vampire bat, and Jefferson'southward basis sloth. All of those animals came from the Ice Age.

The wildlife in West Virginia is absolutely fascinating! I love learning about the animals in my country, unless information technology is a snake! Then I really hate to even think about information technology!
