I know every animal/insect/whatever has some purpose...but lets play.
What animal do you wish did NOT exist?
Me? Roaches. I think they only exist for exterminators and the makers of Raid.

Re: What animal do you wish did NOT exist?
Anything with more than four legs can take a hike, as far as I'm concerned.

I am going to go with the Tazmanian devil. I saw a special on that creature, and wanted to die. Creepy is not even the word for this "thing".
I really am not sure I can choose. My first thought was mice ::shudder::
On the other hand, I have actually been the victim of a lizard attack, so I wish them gone from this earth too.
Kittens and puppies.
Gross.

ok seriously laughed so hard I got teary eyed!! ::still laughing::
Oh man I forgot about Mosquitoes. Yeah, I hate them and wish they would all fall off the face of the planet.
Butterflies. They terrify the living shiit out of me.
Oh and ETA, horses. I don't know why, but they seem kind of useless. I know lots of people that like them, but I don't really understand having a pet that you can't cuddle with, ya know? Anything that big that can kill you? Yikes! Maybe I'm just weird like that.

Snakes! They are so evil. I grew up around rattlesnakes and was always terrified but as I have gotten older it has become a complete phobia. I can't even watch them on TV or a get a stomach ache.
As I have typed this my feet are now both in my chair with me and I am nauseated.
Roaches.
Ok and I had to look up a pic of a camel spider cuz i had no idea. Now i feel like things are crawling on me. Thanks for that.
Oh yes I did. Horrible, horrible event. That thing almost got within 10 feet of me!!
I still have no idea what happened to it. For all I know it's roaming my halls at night, just waiting for the perfect moment to come eat me while I'm sleeping or something.
I bet it's snuggled up with Charlie.
Juuuuuust kidding.

Parasites:
Pinworms, ticks, mosquitoes, lice, chiggers--anything that sucks your blood and makes you itch and/or dead.
lol! Charlie could probably totally take that thing though. He's like, super strong for a newborn. He already gives his little butterfly hanging toy the ole one-two like ten thousand times a day. Plus he never sleeps, so he's not vulnerable, like me. If I had to pick one of them in a fight, I would definitely lean towards the C-man.
I get this way about ants/roaches/spiders/"bugs", i have nightmares that they are crawling on my feet while i sleep and then i wake up crying and can not go back to sleep for hours; i'm too scared to put my feet down on the bed, i usually will finally pass out in a very tight ball. So sad, lol.
I HATE these things. We had about a million of them in this crappy house that I lived in in Dinkytown and they really creeped me out. You could never catch them to smash them, and even if you did, it just kept right on moving!
EW!!!!!
There are many...
-Canadian geese. Those things are evil.
-Seagulls.
-Mayflies. If you're up by Lake Erie during Mayfly season it's hard to walk around without getting a mouthful of them.
-Spiders, Scorpions, and any other member of the arachnid family.
-Slimy frogs
-Bunnies. They get into my garage and end up dying cause I can't catch them.
-Cats. I am afraid of their claws and little needle teeth.
lol. We have a lot of skunks around here and they're constantly getting hit by cars. That stench will stick around for weeks. Blech.
The first thing I thought of was crickets. I hate those things - huge, ugly bugs that jump at you?! I'll pass.
EW!!!! I think I just changed my answer.
Yes, you are weird. jk.
Zen is not amused, though.
I have to agree with roaches. I can't think of any benefit they provide to anyone except exterminators and SC Johnson Wax (or whoever makes Raid).
I am deathly afraid of lizards and snakes, and want them far, FAR away from me, but at least the lizards eat roaches and snakes eat mice/rats.
Fire ants--Never had to deal with them until the end of last summer when we moved into a house. We're originally from MN where they do not exist. They're nasty lil fvckers and I hate them!
