(#5) Crocodiles
No duh crocodiles are on this list. Just look at these creeps! About 1,000 people are killed by crocodiles each year based on a source from 2016.
At least Captain Hook escaped mostly intact. He's a real guy right?

(#14) Giant Anteater
You wouldn't know it by looking at them, but this large creature feeds only on ants and termites. Its size is part of what makes it such a dangerous animal, but its true weapons are its powerful, sharp claws.
If threatened, an anteater can maul a human, like some unlucky hunters in Brazil who were attacked and bled to death.

(#8) Moose
- Animal
Don't let the dumb look on their face fool you; moose are among the most dangerous, regularly encountered animals in the world. They prefer to leave humans alone, but if disturbed or threatened they are known to respond by charging with aggression.
They attack more people annually than bears do in states like Alaska.

(#24) Pfeffer's Flamboyant Cuttlefish
This cute little fish may sound like a character in a Dr. Seuss book and look just as dazzling, but their colorful display is meant to hypnotize its predators.
While once thought to be toxic because of their bright colors, there is no evidence that these fish are actually poisonous.

(#23) Wolverine
Armed with powerful jaws, sharp claws and a thick hide, the wolverine can take down prey as large as a moose and take food from bears and wolves.
