The 10 most dangerous animals in the world
7810 - The tiger
The tiger (Panthera tigris) lives in Asia, mainly India and Bangladesh.
He averages between 40 and 100 victims per year. At issue: the gradual
disappearance of its food and the violation of its natural environment
by humans, often because they attack other prey available or when it
feels threatened.
9 - The sea wasp
This jellyfish, its Latin name Chironex fleckeri, is present in the waters of Australia and the Philippines.
The sea wasp, the most venomous jellyfish known to date, measuring
about 17 cm. Mere contact with its tentacles causes sweating,
suffocation and complete blindness.More than 100 victims are recorded every year.
8 - The hippopotamus
Hippopotamus amphibius live in Africa. Despite his regime herbivore is annually responsible for numerous fatal accidents.
With its long canine teeth, its 1500 to 3200 kg and its running speed
of 30 km / h, the hippo can be a real tank. His victims are more than 200
a year.
7 - Lion
The lion (Panthera leo) lives mainly in the savanna and, like the tiger, is a victim of human activity.
His hunting ground is decreasing and it has often no other choice but
to attack humans to survive. With the loss of living space and contacts
more closely with humans, it would have caused about 250 deaths
annually.
6 - The bee
It is an insect found on all continents. If the bite is usually not fatal, it can become fatal for people with allergies.
The bee in fact injects a poison that, for people sensitive to its bite
can cause death due to anaphylactic shock. 400 people become victims
each year.
5 - elephant
The African savannah elephants (Loxodonta africana), can sometimes be very violent when it encounters people around.
It is the largest land
mammals, with a weight of about 7,300 kg. Better not be on its way and
some did not understand clearly: every year, 600 people in fact are killed every year by savannah elephants.
4 - Crocodile
Reptile in the tropics and subtropics, the crocodile is a formidable predator.
In Africa, India, South America or Australia, while some hunt the
crocodile, the converse is true as well: 2000 people are victimized
every year.
3 - The Scorpion
There are over 1 500 species of these
arachnids that live in Africa, Australia, in the Sahara or North
America. Only 20 of them would be fatal.
The scorpion attacks
generally causes a
significant number of accidents. About 5000 people die every
year as a result of the bite of a venomous species of scorpion.
2 - Snakes
The king cobra is one of the most dangerous species......
While the bite of the king cobra (Ophiophagus hannah) can kill an
elephant in less than three hours, the Trigonocephale (Bothrops
lanceolatus) which are seen in South America and the Caribbean could
kill 30 people at once. 100000 people are victims of snake bites every
year.
1 - The mosquito
Surprising? And yet: the mosquito is the most
dangerous species in the world. This insect that lives on all
continents is the biggest killer of men in the world. By far ...
The danger of the mosquito actually comes from its ability to transmit
disease. A single bite is enough. It is the only one that can transmit
malaria and can spread chikungunya virus. 2 million people die every
year.
