The world's deadliest animal

摘要

What is the most dangerous animal in the world? In the United States we seem to be obsessed with the great white shark, so much so that one television network has an annual "shark week" dedicated to nothing but stories about this fabled killer. The reality, though, is that sharks kill only about 10 or 20 people a year worldwide. Africa has many really dangerous big animals. Take your pick from lions, elephants, cape buffalos, crocodiles, or hippos. None actually stalks people, but each of these species is responsible for up to a few hundred human deaths a year.
