Best defense of Jaguars is to make friends with giant river otters. Jaguars know better than to ask for that smoke

I'm curious to know how and why the Funnel web spider developed a toxin to kill primates which there are no primates in Australia.

I do not believe the worldview birds are related/descendants of dinosaurs. It's stupid.
Birds are birds. Not dinosaurs.
Dinosaurs are dinosaurs. Not birds. Dinosaurs were scaly reptiles. Birds are scaly or reptiles.
Pterodactylus and pteranodon were flying creatures. BUT were NOT birds.
T Rex is not the ancestor of the chicken.
Sooo.

During World War 2 during the battle of Ramree island the Japanese fled into the mangrove swamps of the island and were attacked and devoured by Saltwater Crocodiles, it’s said out of 1000 Japanese soldiers half returned, and those who surrendered during their trek through the swamp told terrifying stories of watching their comrades being devoured alive

Orca whales definitely do not belong in captivity, but if only they would stop this loophole of hunting them, stop hunting them!

Not all humans but republicans, nationalists, conservatives, orthodox, primitive, ultra religious, outdated, backward, traditional, cultural, maoists, anarchists, leninists, marxists, Islamists, jahadists, evangelicals and stereotypes are the most dangerous animals whoever existed in the whole universe

Technically, humans should be number one. But mosquitos definitely hold the top spot for most human fatalities caused by non-human animals.

A former friend of mine once got a tick on his marble sack. He's still alive, mostly because he didn't get infected by any diseases.

There is a zoo in Belize that will take you into their jaguar enclosure to a small cage with a bench in it. The person taking you in there will then use different tactics to call their jaguar over. You can feed it small pieces of meat through the bars. It's the only time I have ever gotten a kiss from something that could eat me. And if you think domestic cats have a rough tongue, you would be shocked at the difference. By comparison, domestic cats have a tongue of silk.

The gorilla is the strongest of all bipedal animals. If you're actually stupid enough to try to take one on, then you deserve everything the gorilla does to you.

you cannot put mosquitos at number one no matter what disease it can give you a box jelly would kill you in a fraction of the time

I chose the wrong video to watch while eating, I could have gone my whole life without knowing about how botflies can infest humans….

October 25, 2025 at 5:31 am
This was an entertaining list. But there are a lot of animals that were way too high, a lot that were way too low, and a lot that shouldn't have been on this list in favor of others that should have been.

17:12 Ticks are not insects. They are arachnids.

8:49 They could. Even if around a dozen or 2 would end up dying before the gorilla.

Why is that crested rat thing on this list if it hasn't even killed anyone yet? Seems like there was a multitude of different creatures that could've easily replaced that guy
Edit: tasmanian devils? Really? I have a feeling there's going to be quite a few of animals on this list that don't seem all that dangerous

Bot flies are nasty! You have to block the air, like with some Vaseline, and it will force them to come out for air, then catch it with a tweezer.
