      I’d say killer whales. But they were quite a way away, and we were on a big boat – so not really that scary!

      Humans. I don’t mean that as a joke, actually. I’ve worked and traveled through some pretty scary places – and, hands down, humans were the scariest of the bunch. Give me a smack of jellyfish over a war zone any day of the week!

      Sea snakes, very poisonous. Fortunately they were always at a comfortable distance, and they can’t jump out of the water to get you!

      A Humpback Whale! Not usually a scary creature, but I’d jumped out of a canoe to swim closer to it it and take a closer look. The only problem was, i think it wanted to take a closer look at me too and started swimming towards me! When you’re very small and something very big starts to get curious about you, it’s a little scary! It swam away once it had decided that I wasn’t very interesting though so all’s well that ends well!
