There is a snake in Australia that is very deadly, but I can't think of the name of it without looking it up. I believe it starts with a "T"...
Pit Bull?
Still no #1 and #2 I see...this has to be one of the most challenging yet, Mike. That Theo, he can pick 'em.
How about the Cape Buffalo.
Ahhhh, my husband loves all things African, my son is an African native son, my niece has been to Africa...the "Big Five" are considered the most dangerous animals in Africa and the most desirable by big game hunters (but don't get me started on that!) The "Big Five" are the African Elephant, Lion, Rhinoceros, Cape Buffalo and Leopard! We have a painted ostrich egg depicting the "Big Five"...a gift to us from my niece.
handy:
Does your son like African art, animals and stuff, too?
I wonder what the difference is between an African crocodile and a North American alligator?
Funny, my husband and daughter love African art and stuff...my son, not really. Sure, he's black so his ancestors hailed from Africa, but he was born in Portland, OR. He likes video games, Tom and Jerry, loves to draw and has decorated his room with Spiderman and basketball posters. He's still only 11. There might be a time when he wants to get more in tune with his ancestry and if so, because of his dad, sister and cousin, he'll have lots of examples of African art and stuff to examine.
As to the Top Ten, I'm still thinking that the #1 will be a snake of some sort. Snakes do get a bad rap, but nonetheless, the contact between snakes and humans is pretty common and snake venom can be very deadly. I have all these books on snakes and such, but I promise I won't look.
My husband is an amateur herpetologist (which is why we have an 8' Boa Constrictor)...maybe when he calls on his lunch hour, I'll ask him which is the deadliest snake in the world. That shouldn't break any rules.
I cheated and looked it up on google........I don't think anyone will get the last one without a little help. :D

I have to admit, the temptation to cheat is strong...but, I don't think asking Steve which is the deadliest snake in the world would be cheating. Probably won't do me any good anyway....
I would have thought some kind of bacteria, fleas, ticks, or rats would have topped the list, but they've all been guessed and are not it.
Farouk, as to bravery with the snake, not really. He's actually the least maintenance animal we have...every couple of weeks we throw in some rats for him, make sure his water bowl is filled and my hubby cleans out his aquarium once a month. He's a very pretty snake, a Red Tailed Boa and is very docile.
