The World's Deadliest Animals | Comparison

RED SIDE "STORE" is here : https://bit.ly/38JfIYv There are few words that can truly describe the collective beauty of the animal kingdom. From the great migration of wildebeests, zebras, and antelopes across the Serengeti to tens of thousands of starling flying together in a massive murmuration, animals have served as an inspiration and delight for most of us. Their beauty is so striking that its easy to forget that they are wild animals, and that we are as much in their world as they are in ours. Sometimes when our paths cross, the results are deadly. In this countdown Shark Every year, sharks are responsible for around 75 attacks on people. Of that number, only around 10 people will die. Sharks do not actively prey on humans, and most of the time it's just a case of unfortunate misidentification - they think the human is a juicy seal or sea turtle. Once they have taken a bite, more often than not they will swim away, leaving the victim to bleed out in the water. The species that are most responsible for human attacks are Great White Sharks and Bull Sharks. Wolf Although wolf attacks do occur, their frequency varies with geographical location and historical period. Gray wolf attacks are rare because wolves are often subsequently killed, or even extirpated in reaction by human beings. As a result, wolves today tend to live mostly far from people or have developed the tendency and ability to avoid them. Lion Humans are generally not on a lion's hit-list, but some have been known to actively seek out human prey. One famous case was that of the Tsavo man-eaters in 1898 who killed 28 railway workers in Kenya over a 9 month period. It has been estimated that 100 people die annually from lion attacks. Elephant These beasts weigh in at 7,000 kilograms and reach a height of about 4 meters, making them the world's largest land animal. Elephants are extremely dangerous when provoked, and have been known to trample a rhinoceros or two to death. They are responsible for an estimated 100 deaths per year. Hippos Although they are mostly herbivorous, they are highly aggressive and are regarded as one of the most dangerous animals in Africa. They have been known to attack without provocation, even to the point of destroying entire vehicles. Around 500 people are killed every year by hippos. Crocodile Crocodiles are huge and extremely dangerous killing machines. Sitting at the top of the food chain, they have been known to eat everything from water buffalo to sharks. In order to kill their prey, crocodiles make use of a technique known as the "death roll", where they relentlessly flip their prey over and over in the water until it drowns and is torn apart. Around 1000 people are killed each year by crocodiles. Assassin Bug This blood-sucking fly is the main carrier of African Sleeping sickness and it is therefore indirectly responsible for the deaths of up to 250,000 people every year. Tapeworm Tapeworms are usually treated with a medicine taken by mouth. The most commonly used medicine for tapeworms is praziquantel (Biltricide). These medications paralyze the tapeworms, which let go of the intestine, dissolve, and pass from your body with bowel movements. Snake Do you have a fear of snakes? Well, you're right to do so! Snakes kill on average 50,000 people around the world each year. Most of these deaths come about as a result of humans unknowingly stumbling upon a snake. Human This list would not be complete if we failed to include humans on it. As a species, humans murder around just under half a million people every single year. Mosquitoes Mosquitoes are the smallest creatures on this list, but they are, without doubt, the deadliest. It has been estimated that mosquitoes transmit diseases such as malaria and dengue fever to around 700 million people each year, resulting in around 660,000 to 1,000,000 deaths.
