IF you had to be eaten to death by an animal, what animal would you choose?

Great White shark. I would probably die from drowning or loss of blood before the shock wore off and the real pain set in.

I tried so very, very hard to answer this question. And could not. There is nothing in the known universe that I could not imagine a horrible, horrible downside to being eaten by. I recall reading somewhere that it’s believed that prey animals usually go into shock, I can only hope that would be true for me. Alas, I expect it would be like some Lovecraftian protagonist journalling my last moments as I’m dragged screaming into some indescribable abyss of teeth and terror.

The term was “conceivably” and I can’t conceive of a scenario where blue-ringed octopi would eat you, so I am afraid you’ll be eaten by army ants.

That’s cold.

The killing part would be a bit of a long shot, but at least a badger would give you a decent burial.

Another vote for orca, chances are I’d be pretty dead first bite. Severed spine, massive organ damage. When I see 'em bag large seals/etc. they tend to look pretty dead by the time the orca receeds into the water.

Plus, it’s a KILLER whale. No shame in dying to an animal we call ‘killer.’
Dying to a jellyfish, or a mid-sized cat? Not my bag of rice.

Actually, army ants can’t survive in the coldso it would be warm, at least, and probably hot.

As for me, I would pick a mama grizzly with cubs. She would be more interested in the killing part to eliminate the threat, eating would come later.

You beat me to it. I should have started typing before reading the whole thread.:: rats :::: :smack:

My set up would to be playing with a very small and funny cub with my back to the direction ‘mama’ would be coming from and have good ear plugs in my ears.

“Eaten to death” Snort

I’m looking over the rules but can’t decide if Chihuahua is acceptable.

It is not. A better answer or it’s army ants for you.

Well, I’ve known some pretty fierce yappy dogs.

It’s not going to matter what kill and eat you. You will go in shock thus killing yourself.

Is there any kind of snake that bites, therefore poisoning you, and then consumes you? If so I want that one. But is has to be a snake whose venom has the effect of a fentanyl or morphine overdose.

I think my current choice would be the boss who can park her Infiniti with her mind. She can take her time.

This was my thought too. For me, speed of death would be the key. Broken neck is fast.

I’m guessing Jeffrey Dahmer as an answer is right out too.

The OP specifically says you can’t choose humans. At least you asked. jtur88 went immediately to choosing a human, so he gets the ants.

One dust mite.

Expect much shaking and tenderizing. If a shark can’t eat you whole (and they generally can’t), they will typically grab their prey and then shake vigorously so that their teeth “saw” their way through, excising an edible chunk. Then they’ll work on getting that swallowed while you bleed and suffer, waiting for them to take the next bite.

If you’re really intent on making the whole process go as well as possible, I suppose you could offer your head as the first chunk.
