stiill waiting for prey at number 4
Unlike in the movie Jaws, sharks are not bent on revenge. If they attack humans it's because they think we're fish. Whenever they sense blood in the water, they get excited and it can trigger one of their famous feeding frenzies in which they will bite everything that moves.


Sharks strike no matter the time of day or the condition of the water. Hunger, territorial defense, movement, and mistaken identity are the main reasons for these attacks, which occur mostly along the coasts of North America, South Africa, and the Caribbean.


blood in the water attracted them to feed their frenzy they use they almost 3000 teeth to bite anything that moves


they can weigh up to 4400 lbs and can reach 20ft long

JELLYFISH




















waving at top 3

Jellyfish are virtually road bumps in the ecosystem. They have no brain and only serve to eat zooplankton from the world's oceans.





The box jellyfish, also known as a sea wasp, lives off the waters of Northern Australia and is the most poisonous sea creature in the world.This translucent being patrols the beaches, basically waiting for contact with its victim. The simple act of stepping on a tentacle can signify death in four minutes





they have 60 tentacles 15 feet long and contain 5000 stinging cell per tentacle enough to kill 60 humans



TOP 2 MOST HARMFUL ANIMAL

SNAKES


















have you watched ANACONDA and BOA?

crawling in our number two spot no other than.......


Snakes , also known as ophidians, are cold-blooded legless reptiles closely related to lizards, which share the order Squamata. There are also several species of legless lizard which superficially resemble snakes, but are not otherwise related to them.


The Asian Cobra is technically not the reptile with the strongest venom but, along with Russell's Viper, it is the one that kills the most people annually. There are Asian cobras in lots of countries but it's in Sri Lanka that they are the most active.


There's a reason why snakes have garnered such a bad rap over the years. There are about two million people who suffer from snakebites every year throughout the world and more than 50,000 of those are fatal.

they do not have the title of the most venomous snake but they are responsible for the largest chunks


THE MOST HARMFUL ANIMAL

MOSQUITO
















PLEASE CHECK OUR UPDATED LIST 2013 HERE


We were expecting a big fearsome creature like the crocodile, lion, or shark to be the most deadly. However, the real number-one killer is much smaller and far more annoying -- the mosquito.


The mosquito is a member of the family Culicidae; these insects have a pair of scaled wings, a pair of halteres, a slender body, and long legs. The females of most mosquito species suck blood from other animals.
