The Deadliest Animal In The World List.

Of course, this is obviously not all inclusive.



The graphic was created to show the danger of mosquitoes and malaria. I thought it was interesting to us divers given that sharks are listed where they are; the least deadly.

I guess if we get rid of all the mosquitoes and all the humans, the world will be safer for... aliens!

Kind of feel guilty for referencing something produced by bastard bill. Oh well.

Actually, it is a lot smaller than the mosquito. It's the microscopic viruses and bacteria that live on the Mosquitos. Without them the Mosquitos are just annoying.

This amply illustrates exactly why I prefer diving solo... no other human beings in the water (and no mosquitoes in salt water either)!
