What is the most dangerous animal in the world? The mosquito, see why
What is the most dangerous animal in the world? Simple in the mosquito. Always are larger animals and beasts to frighten the man. Lions, tigers, sharks, bears and wolves are represented human imagination as the biggest dangers that nature can deploy. The proof is that when a surfer is torn by a great white shark, or when a tourist was mauled by a lion during a safari, the news has been very well received. But the reality is quite different. Excluding living things invisible to the naked eye, such as viruses and bacteria, are the smallest animals to be the most ruthless killer. The most dangerous fact is the mosquito, which transmitting diseases like malaria kills about one million people a year. Soon after another insect, the tsetse fly, which causes sleeping sickness that causes more than 250,000 victims. The poor and much-maligned lion, however, attacks about 70 people a year. Even less perocoloso deer, crossing roads and highways result of chance that a large number of accidents leading to more than 120 deaths a year.
The other killer – Continuing with the ranking, in third place we find the snakes, with their poison, killing about 50,000 people each year. Always poisonous and can be deadly scorpion, who earns a decent fourth place: 25 species of existing two thousand, in fact, have enough poison to kill a man in minutes. At this point they take over the unexpected, those animals that seem meek but it is better not to provoke. First of all, the terror of Africa, is the hippopotamus. Aggressive and territorial, with its relentless jaws is responsible for nearly 3,000 attacks on humans per year. Immediately after the elephants, that if disturbed can become very dangerous: 500 deaths per year are their fault.
