Man how can you argue with that? Hehehe... I'll just give a more conventional answer. I'll choose the Shark. Sharks have been around for 100's of millions of years and have perfected their hunting style. As for man, I do agree man is a dangerous animal. Kills for sport and breeds like a virus.

I heard that sharks aren't as bad as we think as most of their attacks are by curiosity, the only way they know what you are it taking a byte at you. Most kills the shark doesn't try to eat the person, once they see the person isn't what they thought it was, or doesn't suit their tastes they sometimes swim off, yes some sharks to kill and eat people but a lot of the times they were misunderstood, there are other animals on the other hand that regardless of them knowing what you are will attack you anyway. At least that's what I've heard. Some shark facts http://www.factmonster.com/spot/sharks2.html This site has all sorts of info, but for more just research like I did. http://www.new-brunswick.net/new-brunswick/sharks/

I don't know about the most dangerous but mosquitos kill more men than anything else, if this is what you mean. Killer whales also kill for fun (must be to do with being intelligent then) and foxes over kill because they get into a frenzy. Nothing else comes to mind.

Animals do it due to instinct. The average dolphin plays with the smaller species until it kills it, so do killer wales, and so will a cat towards lizards and mice but it will most probably also attack a plastic bag. They do things for instinct and well it's not like they can say today I'm not going to play and kill with that dolphin because it's wring I'll go play chess instead. So they think very basically, and it is said that animals that play with their food are simply going by instinct that helps improve their skills as hunters. As for feeding frenzies, again it is an instinct to hunt and kill to eat some animals might not know how to control themselves like the expression "you're eyes are bigger then your stomach" thing is they basically do what instinct tells them to but we have the option to choose our decisions. If I'm in a library and need to pee I'm not gonna go by instinct and pee wherever and choose to hold it then go to the toilet at the librarie's or go straightway, or even hold it to go to the toilet at home We have the gift of choice, common sense, good and wrong, what we were taught and what is expected of us, that's why with all this and doing what humans do they are considered dangerous, but not all of them of course there's always the worse ones and the better ones. But I must agree that mosquitos can be extremely dangerous by deceases... it's a better choice then mine of spiders. Hope you don't get upset that I share a different view,, it's just my opinion!

Snakes usually only attack when provoked or feel threatened, a lot of snakes don't pose threats to people and some are good animals to have around like some that like feeding on mice and are harmless to people. Contrarily to what many people think snakes aren't slimy they are actually quite smooth and soft especially the belly area. Here a site on snakes: http://www.petplace.com/reptiles/interesting-snake-facts/page1.aspx

i dont think humans are the most dangerous animal in the world. we can find an animal that is most dangerous to us, like the shark, or some rabbied animal, or bear or even a maltreated dog. but we can also say the most dangerous animal is one that is not dangerous to us, but to other species. almost every animal is dangerous in any form, whether it is hunting for its meal and is dangerous to their prey, whether the animal is frightened or angered, or cornered, it can become dangerous. or if it is ill, rabbied or in pain, using a defensive mechanism, or so on, every animal is dangerous, there is no way of being able to tell which animal is the most dangerous because of the so many levels they can be dangerous on.

I think humans are the most dangerous as to when an animal does it it ussualy has a reason to but a lot of people do things just because, for fun or so on, animals ussualy attack by fight, hunger or fier, most wild animals and even domesticated animals can have a peacefull relationship if both sides learn to live with each other, there are already some small places that have learnt to live with animals instead of trying to fight them off. But there are some animals that can pose a threat in some ways, I'm not dissagreeing but not tottaly agreeing either. Just giving my opinion that's all, just an opinion in a sea of thoughts.

I agree with you 100%. No doubt about it, they kill for sport and greed for money, as well as sickness and rage. Our other animals kill for food to survive. Humans torture and hurt one another. So, humans are the most dangerous animal there is, and the power to reason is the cause of it.

I'd have to agree in most levels the most dangerous animal even to himself can be stated as the humam. They kill and molest their own kind even though having the mental capability of knowing it's wrong. They think killing animals can be fun. They destroy earth and most of them don't care even despite all the warnings and proof of it. A lot of the times and in many places they abort their own offspring because even though they could have used contraceptives hey they forgot. A lot of places they are starving and dying but still have kids only to have them die to. Although years of evolution a lot of places still keep barbarous tradition and customs. And the list continues. But if I has to state another animal I'd say venomous house spiders, like the black widow, it's not it's fault it's dangerous but due to it's small size, it's choice of location like inside shoes... it can be very dangerous if you don't get an antidote.
