Despite humanity’s "mastery" and "superiority" on planet earth, there are still plenty of creatures out there, willing to kill (and even eat) if given a small chance. There are also all those who are driven by adrenaline to go meet these animals and want to come out alive to tell about it.
Matt Kareus, owner of Natural Habitat Adventures, which organizes safaris around the world, explains that most African safari guides say that the buffalo is the most dangerous animal, because they are easily scared and their first instinct is to attack, although for him , There is nothing more lethal than finding a hippo in the water at night. People who live in Alaska say that a moose is much more dangerous than a huge bear. All of these statements depend on the circumstances surrounding that first meeting.
The fear factor often depends on personal experience. For Australian guide Mark Christensen, the saltwater crocodile is the creature to avoid the most. One of the most important guides in Tanzania , George Mavroudis, considers the African lion to be the most dangerous animal. In North America the attacks of bears and cougars have increased considerably, as well as those of tigers in some parts of Asia .
At the same time, fiction movies and books remind us that animals instinctively move and can attack in the moment. The problem: people decide to invade their territory and the animals find themselves cornered without being able to leave, so they decide to defend themselves. So be careful when choosing your next vacation .
