Why do some people are 'scared' of reptiles?

It seems like almost everyone is scared of reptiles. I don’t really understand why, Maybe it could be because of movies make them look bad and scary?

Answer #1

im scared of certain reptiles because im afraid that they’re going to bite me or something.

Answer #2

Many people fear reptiles because they are scaly, cold blooded ‘weird’ looking animals that are very fast and mysterious. I love reptiles…=)

Answer #3

I kinda think its the fear of the unknown. Not a lot of people have reptiles in their house, we usually have cats, dogs, hamsters, and turtles. So like I said, I think its just the fear of the unknown.
