Time to revise my rankings?

A couple of weeks ago, inspired by a story of a moose taking down a helicopter, I ranked my top 5 "World's Most Dangerous Animals" (check that post here).

Well, a recent video has come to my attention that's making me rethink my rankings. Not only does this video dispel the myth that turtles are slow (this little guy is booking), but it also proving that turtles can be pure bad ass. If you look at it on paper, a cat should OWN a turtle. But, to steal an over-used sports cliche, that's why they play the games.

Here's a rundown of the two competitors:






CAT
  1. Sharp Teeth
  2. Sharp Claws
  3. Cat-Like Reflexes (actually Cat reflexes would probably be more accurate
  4. Cat-Like Agility (Ditto)
  5. Can see in the dark
  6. Can give you a wicked-bad allergy attack
TURTLE
  1. Carries his home around on his back.
  2. May mutate into a Teenage Mutant Ninja, but highly unlikely








Looks like a pretty uneven matchup. Cats are the easy favorite. To put it simply, a cat should kick a turtle's ass, barring any kung fu training for the turtle. Well guess what people...this turtle aint having it. Check out the video.
