Countries With the Most Dangerous Animals

Sometimes I wonder how to cope with life in some of these places. I live in England, and so the most dangerous animal here is probably the occasional wasp, and just sting and leave you, but in these places, it is much worse.
The Top Ten
1 Australia Australia, officially the Commonwealth of Australia, is a sovereign country comprising the mainland of the Australian continent, the island of Tasmania, and numerous smaller islands. With an area of 7,617,930 square kilometres (2,941,300 sq mi), Australia is the largest country by area in Oceania and the world's sixth-largest country. Australia is the oldest, flattest, and driest inhabited continent, with the least fertile soils. It is a megadiverse country, and its size gives it a wide variety of landscapes and climates, with deserts in the centre, tropical rainforests in the north-east, and mountain ranges in the south-east.

You asked " countries with the most dangerous animals" and the answer is Australia. It has the most venomous snakes, the most venomous spider (that may be contested) and the most deadly animal of all the box jelly fish. Not to mention salt water crocodile, it even has killer ants. To say Brazil is folly, first Australia has a tiny population compared to Brazil, and live only on the coast. The contact between humans and dangerous animals is rare, owing to the fact of education in Australia of the danger of these animals. More deaths have nothing to do with your question.

Australia may not be riddled with wars and violence, unlike some countries (which aren't on here), the amount of deadly animals is, in some way, ridiculous. A few weeks ago, I almost rode over a Brown Snake on my bike. It was just across the path, and it looked like bark... until it moved. But yes, lots of animals here can kill you. Cane toads, sharks, snakes, spiders, creepy crawlies. I was in Queensland last year, the cockroaches there, anywhere else in the world, cockroaches are... well... they're insect size, in Queensland, they're the size of a small child's foot! However, they can't kill you which is a surprise. Usually, the saying for animals in Australia is "If it can't kill you, it doesn't exist in the country. I think the animals here make up for the lack of natural disasters we have. Don't get me wrong fellow Australian, I know we have bushfires, cyclones, floods, tornadoes... actually, on second thought, we have some freakish weather as well, but we don't have volcanoes. ...more

Everything in Australia wants to kill you. I've seen documentaries where is had taken weeks to find a tiger in the wild. I can walk out into my back yard and catch the worlds deadliest spiders. I can burley up off the coast and find a white pointer shark. I can walk to the beach an find a king Brown snake. If you live in the northern territory you can't swim in the ocean or the rivers. Sea snakes, blue ringed octopus, box jelly fish, stone fish, salt water crocks, every deadly shark will take your life. Koalas my look cute but in the wild if you try to approach one they talon like claws that will tear you to shreds. A kangaroo had a large claw on the middle toe of its back feet. It's can stand on its tail raise is back legs and with one kick disembowel you. The red kangaroo can stand 7 feet tall. Not only is it enormously strong but it can box. I'm not kidding. Even the cute as pie platipus have a nasty poisonous spur on its back legs. I concede Africa had the most number of great ...more

Obviously the people who voted for Australia have never been there. I have lived there all my life and have never been attacked by any animals whatsoever. 99% of the time you only see these "dangerous" animals in zoos, not walking down the street or in your backyard. I have kangaroos wandering 'round my large property and have never been attacked by any of them. If you venture where "dangerous" animals are known to inhabit and there are signs advising you of them, then you only have yourself to blame if you're attacked.
Americans, there are hundreds of thousands of alligators living in the Everglades.
National Park. You also have dangerous bears in Montana, Utah, Northwestern Washington,Texas et al.

2 Brazil Brazil, officially the Federative Republic of Brazil, is the largest country in both South America and Latin America. At 8.5 million square kilometers (3,300,000 sq mi) and with over 214 million people, Brazil is the world's fifth-largest country by area and the sixth most populous. Its capital is Brasília, ...read more.

Brazil has it all which they have giant centipede that is aggressive and painful bite and huge! and they have the Brazilian Wandering spider and is also aggressive and very venomous. If Creepy crawlies don't kill you than bigger predators might such as Jaguars which are Fast and smart hunters, and you have anacondas which are biggest snakes in the world (can possibly swallow you whole if threatened. next time you go swimming, do not swim in caiman crocodile area in brazil, or it will be your last swim. Piranhas rarely attack unless blood, but they do give that creepy aggressive look at the amazon river (I can go on if I wanted to)

Australia has dangerous animals, but most of the dangerous animals are the sea creatures. Brazil has cougars, anacondas, warrior wasps, poison dart frog, bullet ants, Piranhas, scorpions, stonefishes, Brazilian wander spider which I would say the spider is more dangerous than any spider species in Australia combined. And if Australia is still the most dangerous, Brazil definitely is one of the most scariest, you cannot deny it

Brazil has the most venomous spider called the Brazilian Wonder Spider. Brazil has very venomous snakes and scorpions. The Amazon Rainforest has several types of dangerous animals including the Anaconda and piranhas. The sea coast has many sharks, cone snails, jellyfishes, stone fishes which are also deadly. Mosquitoes of many types are also dangerous.

Australia HAS dangerous animals, but are not associated with the population due to them being in the middle of AUS, whereas everyone lives on the coast.
Not sure why people are so scared of us... would be much more scared of the wild Indian tigers or the American bears than a couple of spiders that don't bite you unless you stick your finger in their business...

3 Democratic Republic of the Congo The Democratic Republic of the Congo, also known as DR Congo, DRC, DROC, Congo-Kinshasa, or simply the Congo is a country located in Central Africa.

I was originally going to vote for a country in The Americas but I changed my mind and settled for an african country.

As well as having a huge diversity of large or venomous animals, humans are what make this place more terrifying.

I don't know it just is

4 India India, officially the Republic of India, is a country in South Asia. It is the seventh-largest country by area, the second-most populous country (with over 1.2 billion people), and the most populous democracy in the world. Its capital is New Delhi. Some other major cities are Mumbai, Chennai, and Ahemdabad. The most spoken languages are Hindi and English, but there are 22 official Indian languages.

Only country in the world where you can see tigers and lions in the wild. Not to mention leopards, elephants, buffaloes, Rhinos, bears, wolves, king cobras, pythons etc.

Whatever animals Africa has in different countries, here we have them in a single place.

India do share many of the same wildlife as Africa due to its late continental drift away from Africa joining into Asia. With saying that their relatives have been apart from their counterparts for over 100000 years. With that they have evolved differently and in most cases smaller due to adapting to their new environment, so no they aren't as dangerous as the African subspecies that they originated from. That's evident in most cases if u compare their physical characteristics

India is the wildest place.. it is the size of a continent and has more wildlife and carnivorous diversity than any other country.. Also Indians don't kill animals usually.. so snakes curled up inside homes are pretty common including Cobras.. Crocodile infested rivers are a common sight as are Lions and tigers

Crocodiles, cobras, tigers, kraits, scorpions, spiders, vipers, rhinos, elephants, pythons, bears wolves, leopards, panthers, box jellyfish, sea snakes, and of course, the most dangerous, mosquitoes.

5 South Africa South Africa, officially the Republic of South Africa, is the southernmost sovereign state in Africa. It is bounded on the south by 2,798 kilometers of coastline of Southern Africa stretching along the South Atlantic and Indian Oceans, on the north by the neighbouring countries of Namibia, Botswana ...read more.

The big difference between Africa and other places is that with most other places animals kill you in self defense. In Africa you are on the menu for a surprisingly large amount of creatures in addition to those that kill in self defense.

Don't even get me started, there are so many apex predators, powerful aggressive herbivores. Let's just give you a bit of them. Rhinos, lions, Buffaloes, leopards, hyenas, cheetahs, jackals, elephants, hippos, honey badgers. There are so many more

South Africa definitely, , look on wild, people always get killed when they visit South Africa by nasty animals!

Do your research on the wildlife here. Top 5 easy

It has a population of 16 million, of which 1.6 million live in the capital and largest city N'djamena.

Many people here want to kill you and people are animals!

7 Mozambique Mozambique, officially the Republic of Mozambique, is a country in Southeast Africa bordered by the Indian Ocean to the east, Tanzania to the north, Malawi and Zambia to the northwest, Zimbabwe to the west, and Swaziland and South Africa to the southwest.

If you take a close look at the flag, I am SURE you know what's the most dangerous animal...

8 Chile Chile, officially the Republic of Chile, is a country in the western part of South America. It is the southernmost country in the world, and the closest to Antarctica; occupying a long and narrow strip of land between the Andes to the east and the Pacific Ocean to the west.

This is the place is where the feral dogs are at their most dangerous

The Chilean Recluse Spider is very but VERY dangerous, that's why I'm afraid of Spiders.
Greetings from Chile - Carlos Fernández

It's actually pretty dangerous. There have been bear attacks, vicious monkey attacks, giant hornet attacks, and more!

They have dangerous animals like mako sharks, urchins, Japanese spider crabs and few other animals from Sea

Seriously, you guys votes Japan because of some frictional character animals?

A wild Pikachu attacked you!

11 United States The United States of America, or the U.S.A. for short, is a federal republic composed of 50 states, 48 of them are contiguous states. There are two other states, Alaska and Hawaii, which are north and south of the contiguous states, respectively.

Its capital, Washington D.C. (District of Columbia) is defined by imposing neoclassical monuments and buildings including the iconic ones that house the federal government's 3 branches: the Capitol, White House and Supreme Court. Though it has no official language, English and ...read more.

Have you ever even been outside? United States has a great animal : population control. Yes Florida has alligators ( NOT CROCS ) and Bears but the Bears literally run away if you go near them and the alligators just ignore them. Just don't bother them and then they won't bother you. Places like Congo or Parts of Australia have either the most poisonous animals or the most deadly (Lions HIPPOS, hippos are very unpredictable and dangerous, While I was in Japan they had a Hippo in a zoo and you could throw Lettuce Heads at it for it to eat it and it ate it in one chomp, And Australia has Blue Ring Octopus and Box Jelly Fish.

Not by any means number 1 for dangerous animals, but still much more dangerous than Europe. No offense, but why would any European country on this list be present after #20? Just no. The United States has an extremely diverse ecosystem, wether it be the arid desserts of the Southwest, humid swamps of the Southeast, or the somewhat less humid, tall forests of the mid Atlantic states and the Northeast, everywhere has a decent selection of dangerous animals, even with Alaska via polar bears, etc. The U.S. has an abundance of pit vipers, large bears, sharks, alligators in the southeast, not to mention two or so venomous spiders, many large carnivorous cats and mammals in general, and even a venomous lizard, yes, lizard, in the deep southwest: the Gila monster, out of the two venomous lizard s in the world, other being the Mexican beaded lizard. There are more, but I will leave it at that. Also, keep in mind most animals attack only for a reason, so leave them alone and the same will be ...more

Once I saw a deer running in my backward. Plus a gang of Turkeys attacked my car then gobbled up my tire. Once a daddy long leg crawled up my leg. Also I found a bug in my pants. Another reason is that my cat scratched me. Plus a dog tackled me. Did you see that video where a dog tried to kill a toddler but then a cat body checked it. Also I saw a bull pick up a dude, and the dude tried to hold on but then he got flung off. Plus there is a dangerous spider that lives in garages. Also bears wander around in parks and try to eat you. Plus there might be sharks and panthers. Once I got stung by a jellyfish

Even though many people live here and it seems like a "normal" country like let's say England, the USA has a lot of deadly creatures. In the deserts of Arizona, rattlesnakes and Gila monsters prowl the desert floor with a venomous bite. The coast of cape Call of Duty is a home of hundreds of great white sharks and the swamps of Louisiana are a hiding spot for massive alligators!

12 Colombia Colombia, officially the Republic of Colombia, is a country situated in the northwest of South America, bordered to the northwest by Panama; to the east by Venezuela and Brazil; to the south by Ecuador and Peru; and it shares maritime limits with Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Honduras, Jamaica, Dominican Republic ...read more.
13 Tanzania Tanzania, officially the United Republic of Tanzania or simply U.R.T, is a large country in Eastern Africa within the African Great Lakes region.

Yes lions they do exist in this world and a lion doesn't kills one person in a week, it kills more than one person and you'r talking to a Tanzanian men over her busboy

14 Kenya Kenya, officially the Republic of Kenya, is a country in Eastern Africa. At 580,367 square kilometres (224,081 sq mi), Kenya is the world's 48th largest country by area. With a population of more than 47.6 million in the 2019 census, Kenya is the 29th most populous country in the world. Kenya's capital ...read more.

I think Kenya should be pretty high on the list, they have Lions, Elephants, Leopards etc very dangerous animals

16 Canada Canada is a country in North America that is next to the United States, and it's the 2nd largest country in the world by area (size is 9.985 million km²). This country has 10 provinces, and 3 territories. Canada became a dominion on July 1, 1867. Its 10 provinces are: Ontario, British Columbia, Quebec, ...read more.

Yeah, Canada, my birthplace, has some dangerous animals. All three bear species from North America live there, (the polar, grizzly, and American black) and they're all dangerous. Coyotes and wolves maim children and pets. The mountain lion and wolverine are all formidable predators, which have no natural predators, (besides humans) and are completely fearless, an at any given time, can attack people if provoked, mostly hunters, or even kids. The herbivores aren't gentle giants either, and they too can be just as dangerous as the carnivores mentioned above. More people are actually attacked by moose and bison, then by bears, wolves, mountain lions, and nearly all predators mentioned above. Even rodents (such as beavers), weasels (badgers, or pine martens), or birds(geese and eagles) can be pretty nasty towards you too if surprised or cornered.

Sure Australia has venomous/poisonous animals, but most people survive those attacks. Try surviving an attack by the worlds largest land predator (the polar bear) which can kill whales. Or a grizzly bear which is so aggressive polar bears are scared of them. despite what people think, grizzlies can climb trees really fast. How about taking on a pack of timber wolves that can take down a moose that weighs half a metric ton (also an aggressive animal despite its goofy looks). What about the mountain lions able to take down elk. or a one ton bison that's bigger than your car. how about a wolverine? many hunter have been shocked to find the wolverine they've been tracking down to hunt is hunting them!

Fun fact: 75% of the annual deaths in Canada are done by bear attacks. The other 25% is done by other humans, disease, etc.

In Australia: Aaaah a jellyfish! (Runs out of water) safe now!

In Canada: Aaaah a grizzly bear! (Starts running but bear catches up) Help! (Bear rips mans head off)

17 Philippines The Philippines, officially the Republic of the Philippines, is an archipelagic country in Southeast Asia. It is situated in the western Pacific Ocean and consists of around 7,641 islands that are broadly categorized under three main geographical divisions from north to south: Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao. ...read more.

They have the most dangerous sharks. The snakes are probably the most dangerous in the world. When I visited, I saw the biggest snake I have ever seen in my life, and I see snakes almost everyday.

20 Sri Lanka Sri Lanka, officially the Democratic Socialist Republic of Sri Lanka and known from the beginning of British colonial rule until 1972 as Ceylon, is an island country in South Asia near south-east India.

I think that,the animals in Sri Lanka are very similar with that one in India!
So India is taking the 5th place here...

21 Mexico Mexico, officially the United Mexican States, is a federal republic located in North America. The country is located between the U.S. and Central America, and is known for its Pacific and Gulf of Mexico beaches and its diverse landscape of mountains, deserts, and jungles.

23 England England, previously the Kingdom of England, is a constituent country of the United Kingdom along with Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. ...read more.

England has adders, a venomous snake that is very unlikely to cause fatalities. Apparently the September fly or 'daddy long legs' has one of the most deadliest poisons in the world, it just can't bite, but I'm not sure if this is true or like I presume, not. Britain use to be home to wolves, bears and wolverines, but this was a few hundred years ago. English people are notorious for binge drinking, and ruining peoples evenings. They are probably the most dangerous creatures in Spain, and islands across the mediterranean. And I'm English and yeah, we over drink often and without occasion for celebration lol

How is england on this list remove it. I live in england and the only deadly animal is an angry bee or wasp.

Why is this on this list? There's literally nothing. Hell, it's even a stretch to call it "wildlife" anymore.

England is swarmed I got bit this Mourning but you must say it is 3rd but I seen Australia and Brazil.

25 Albania Albania is a southeastern European country that is slightly larger than Maryland and near Montenegro, Kosovo, Republic of Macedonia, and Greece. The capital is a city called Tirana. Some other major cities in Albania are Durrës, Elbasan, Vlorë, and Shkodër. Albania gained its independence in 1912. Many different languages are spoken but the official language is Albanian. They also speak Italian, Greek, French, German, and English. The population is currently 2,897,400 people (254 per square mile). Most Albanian people are Muslim but some are Christian. Albania is mostly farmland and is known to have beautiful beaches.

Albania's mountainous terrains have a lot of dangerous animals, you can find wolfs, lynxes, snakes, spider and maybe not so dangerous but some other animals you can find are wild pigs, scorpions, foxes, bats etc. Maybe not as dangerous as Africa or Australia but it can be considered dangerous country

I love Albania but every time I go for summer vacation my grandparents house is in like the country so during the day I'm not allowed to go into the garden because theirs snakes and especially the hills. I've head that there are scorpions but I've never encountered one. For me I'm really scared of bugs but if your a bug lover that's the place to go! so many different creatures in such a small country
