I'll guess snakes unless we are including humans as an animal.

I think Mosquitos kill the most people if we are including insects.

I was going to say mosquitoes too

If strictly ”animal” and not insect, perhaps it’s other humans.

As to the 2nd, non specified (animal, insect, disease, or natural calamity?), I’d guess heart disease or mosquitoes.

Bears seem to be blamed for a lot of things so I'll go with bears.

Dogs might be a close second.

I think dogs are first, which is one of the reasons that pit bulls are illegal in Florida.

I would say tigers for second.

If you include insects as animals, then I would agree with mosquitoes.

If you include humans, then humans would be first or second.

I was excluding insects and humans in my guesses.

Deer

dogs

Humans, as there is so much war and murders in the world.

This questions practically begs for definitions. I would guess that mosquitoes are the deadliest animal but it is not the mosquito itself that kills, it is what it carries in it and spreads.

Scientifically, insects are considered to be animals. Mosquitoes are the number one killer of humankind worldwide. I'd say that humans are the second most common killer of fellow humans. Lone Jack, humans are considered to be animals. All living things are divided into one of five taxonomic kingdoms: plants, animals, fungi, protists, and monera.

I agree with Lucille, this question needs definitions.

I also agree with mosquitos being the deadliest, due to the diseases they can carry and therefore spread. And humans being the second deadliest. But maybe that should be reversed, humans first and mosquitoes second.

I don't think dogs would rate very high in the 'deadly' category, unless the question is world wide, then perhaps they could be because of rabies.
