A three French suffer from phobias ... Topping the list, the animals. In summer, there are of course wasps, terrors of picnics, but many other creatures frighten us. Often wrong.
Here is a selection of those terrible "beast" that cause us the greatest fears ...
Mouse
harmless little animals and even pets, mice frequently cause fear among some uncontrolled. Its cousin, the rat is a true social indicator. It appears to announce the risk of a disaster or disruption dun society. Despite their bad reputation, mice have always had the right role. In cartoons, the characters are sympathetic and endearing as Mickey or Jerry.
Snake
From childhood we are taught that the serpent has fostered the original sin. His reputation and his cool and smooth appearance makes it an unpopular animal. But species that are found in France are generally not dangerous to humans, they fear more than anything else. The snake is one of the few animals able to kill, while providing the antidote. He plays other important in the ecological balance of nature: the Viper, for example, regulates the population of rodents in crops. The scorpion
The bug causes the deadly poison often surprisingly deep repulsion or fascination: a scorpion can be beautiful (the Pandinus imperator is a fluorescent blue and is found mostly in South America). The scorpion never attacks spontaneously. Although it is classified as dangerous animals, the species of southern France inject a dose of venom too weak to be fatal. The danger lies in the suitcases that can contain much larger scorpions and formidable (those of North Africa).
Spider
His appearance repulsive and his speed put the spider at the top of our list of phobias. It is wary of the largest that are often harmless, while small can be fatal to humans. Some have even realized their dream ... making films in Hollywood. The most famous name is Belinda, she starred in the films "Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom" and "James Bond against Dr. No". This spider was chosen especially for his kindness, his patience and docility.
Bats
When the man has scored in the family of vampires it is difficult for a small bird to escape the curse. You have to go very far (Tropical America) to find those bloodsuckers ... animals, but in small quantity (equivalent weight 60 g) and a painless way. Only three species are known to drink blood. In our region, they only address bugs and make us so much service. The wasp
Tiny, the wasp is nevertheless one of the most formidable representatives of the animal kingdom. Each year in France kills nearly 20 people, mainly during August alone. The wasp was first deadly for people with allergies, but not only. Bites to the neck or tongue cause edema embarrassing respiration. But experts also point to its useful aspect. Each wasp flies destroyed about 1000 and 1000 tracked during his short life.
