I could take a sloth. Probably.

I want to trash-talk her for wasting time in a way that involves wasting another human's time, but its a bigger problem that so many people are lonely and afraid of wasting the time of others. Get out there and troll IRL, people!!

he better be riding the horse over a rocky steep incline and not actually trying to fight it. why do they go for big animals? I can take a cat. maybe. most birds native to North America.

So I assume that doesn't count condors or eagles?

Unarmed, I think I could comfortably defeat almost any four legged creature that stands lower than my knee.

I’m not going to fight an animal. I’m easily pinned down by a house cat and they’re pretty small.

I can wrestle a modestly sized gator on land. I know I can catch certain nonvenomous snakes. Catching turtles and tortoises is pretty trivial, aside from snapping types.

Size really does count for a lot. So does a creature's inability to bend enough to bite you if you grab it a certain way. Finally, how willing are you to deal with some pain? Because you're probably gonna bleed.

Def not a squirrel, those are too fast. Maybe a smallish-medium fish and prob a goat

I'm going with a couple ants.

I grow out my nails for acoustic guitar so I technically always have a weapon for eye gouging. After blinding the beast I'd go after their throat as hard and as many times as I can while trying to keep distance where possible. It would never work on obvious human killing machines like tigers, gorrilas, bears, etcetera, but it might be helpful on a wolf or anything I can get my arms around. I'm getting older and don't have the stamina for fighting that I used to though so I'll probably die.

Tiny dog breeds, depending on how hard it bites. Maybe a chicken but definitely not a rooster
