The moccasin can be aggressive at times, though not near as bad as most report. The biggest fear lies not in its venom but the bacteria that grows within its mouth, some really nasty critters considering what they eat. I have been bumped by a few while wading across a swamp before daylight and never gave them a second thought, but encountering them underwater I do tend to give them a bit of room. Bumping into one in water with the vis tyupical for most golf course ponds would not be fun. On the other hand, I have been underwater with gators on a number of occassions and they just tend to look at you funny as they wonder what you are. They are more likely to attack you at the water's edge, or if you do something stupid like step on them. I grew up in central FL and used to catch venonmous snakes as a kid to make money (sold them to be milked for their venonm to make anti-venom.) I can't say as I have ever had a real fear of reptiles, but I do hate spiders
I can't imagine living in a place that has big spiders like tarantulas running around everywhere! Yikes!!
We used to have a medic in our group that had a passion for tarantulas and scorpions, would catch them and play with them. Me, I always enjoyed hearing that loud pop whenever I would drive over one of those hairy monsters.
NO to spiders and jellyfish! eeeew!
