I'm a conservation biologist & HATE pandas.
Mosquitoes are a close second, but as they're invertebrates I can't completely despise them.
Why don't you like dogs?
Oh and this is the end of our friendship.

Otherwise it's moths for me. Can't stand the vile creatures.
Swimming - on a family holiday, I dived into the deep end and was underwater for a long time. I didn't know how to swim. Mum jumped in fully clothed (open air pool) and dragged me up. Two days later, still in shock from water, my uncle took my brother and I out with his kids in an inflatable dinghy. We got taken out by the tide, waves got serious. We were rescued by a Sea King. I never forgave him and took great delight on the final night of the holiday in consuming candy floss and a hot dog at a fair and then vomiting over him when we drove back.
Snakes - we used to live the countryside. Early 80's, there was one big bad winter. I went out to feed the rabbit in the hutch. I came back holding something and asked Mum what it was. She apparently froze for a second, told me to drop it, and then grabbed the nearest broom. I was carrying an adder that had got into the hutch in the search for warmth.
That great psychological cliche about your childhood? All fucking true.

Hyenas aren't too nice either.
Vampire Bats are quite disturbing. Saw one of those kids' wildlife programmes where the presenter went into a cave full of them... and bat shit that stinks of decaying blood. Not nice.

When I was six, I got a Triang Flying Scotsman for Christmas.
The man who lived next door had worked on the railways all his life and was dying on cancer. My father thought I should go round and show him the model.
I knocked on the door and was greeted by the gentleman's wife - followed rapidly by their dog which jumped up at me - knocking my one day old Flying Scotsman out of my hands. On hitting the floor, it broke into about a million pieces. There was no way my parents could afford to replace it....
These kind of things leave you scarred for life....
