Plenty of dogs have chased me, best thing to do with them is stand still and yell at them "NO!" but if you can make it over a fence or up a tree it's worth a try.
Most embarrassing?
A dragonfly, in Canada.
I know, I could have just twatted it, but it was huge, nothing like the little things we get here, this one must have been the size of my hand, and flying right at me from all directions, like they do, zig zagging, wasn't sure if it was capable of stinging me so I shit it and ran away.
I was young, OK!

If in doubt.. mumble.
Been chased by a few.. the odd dog and i was doing the garden once and picked up what i thought was a stick to find i was holding an adder, screamed, threw it and it chased me across the lawn
and i went to Bradgate park once and through a frisby for my dog and it hit a stag that was in the long grass, it chased me and pinned me up against the abbey wall i was terrified, 2 wardens came and told me to stay still and the bloody thing licked my face then wandered of it was disgusting..but painless thankfully

Got attacked by an Alsatian when I was 5, didn't get to run very far though so wasn't really a chase.
Got chased by guard dogs trying to get into a Festy through some private woods. That was scary.
Got chased by a water buffalo on the edge of a lake in Nepal many years ago. Luckily it wasn't a long distance runner. That was really scary, for a minute..

Bringing YOU round.....

Been chased lots by geese and swans, IMO these are not birds but rather evil spawn of the devil.
I also got chased by a pair of magpies, I had gone behind a tree for a wee (miles from anywhere), I didn't realise the magpies had nested in said tree until, with my trousers round my ankles, they began dive bombing me - pecking my head and screeching. I ran back to the car with my trousers still at half mast while these birds continued to attack me.
Bloody birds

Respect my existence or expect my resistance
Swans are ok, but then I spent 6 years feeding the pair on the lake at my uni, so they were okay with me and only savaged small children.
The male one is pretty bad tempered and will chew my shoes if he feels like it though.

by a bull when i was much younger
there was a group of us and we were all daring each other who could go the closest
i won...
not that 'winning' was a particularly clever thing to do
the trick is to stay close to the kid thats a slower runner

A guy on the Island, either running or biking, was taken down by a cougar a couple of years ago. Apparently it was lying in wait beside the road, and jumped on his back after he passed. It was eating him when the rangers arrived to shoot it.

Got chased by a hound from hell that ran at me late one night when I was almost home from a gig. Was carrying a big balloon with an eye painted on it and wearing 6-inch platforms.
Wasn't going to run until I realised it probably wasn't going to stop charging at me (it was a few metres away and still going at full pelt). So I ran
across the road around a moving car, back across the road again, and so on for a bit, with the bloody thing snapping and snarling at my heels, all the while shouting 'HELP!' and still clutching the balloon.
Eventually a car stopped. I could see who was in it but I opened the passenger door and jumped in, slamming the door just before the dog hurled itself at the window
Turned out to be my local hairdresser driving home. She was pissing herself, I was shitting myself, and the dog's owner turned up apologising profusely.

Apparently back.
Got shased by an obnoxious goat once on a very small island. I had to climb a tree, was a bit too slow and got butted up the arse. Nasty.
Although it didn't chase me, I was having a piss behind a rock in India, looked up to see this vast water buffalo glowering at me, head lowered. It was a big wall eyed ugly fucker with massive horns. I'd never seen one before, was a bit stoned, and my god, those things are fucking enormous. I really thought it was going to go for me, not what you want while you've got your pants round your ankles, no sirree.

I had one experience as a child.
Not so much chased by animal, more "freaked out and stalked by a cow".
The bloody thing kept following me around, not chasing really - he was just walking calmly and then stopping in front of me and staring me out.
It lasted only about ten minutes, the bastard ended up cornering me against a barbed wire fence which I had to climb over to escape.
