"Top ten Deadliest Animals"




The article I'm reading is about the top ten deadliest animals in the world. From the dangerous Poison-Dart frogs to the mosquitos that carry malaria, the world is full of dangerous and deadly creatures that we humans may not be aware of. All over the world these animals hide in wait, ready to snap up the first prey in sight. 1:A monster of death, yet one of the miracles of nature, a poison -dart frog oozes out chemicals that can easily kill ten humans. 2:Whether they are one or they number in the thousands, cape buffalos can trample a human with 1,500 pounds of weight and two crushing horns in just minutes. 3:As cute and cuddly as they may seem, when you get between a mother Polar bear and its baby, it can take off your head with just a blow of its paw. 4:Elephants are not always like you see them at the zoo. In the wild, one stomp of an elphants foot is certain death and the tusks are like gaint swords attacking you. 5:The crododile is the master of diguise. One moment you're stepping on a log: the next minute, you are drowning in the water ready to be the croc's next meal. 6:These powerful hunters of Africa have speed, claws and blood thirsty fangs. Don't get in the way of an African lion in the wild. 7:These creatures have razor sharp teeth, speed and a taste for blood. Don't bleed near a shark or else the tiniest movement and you are history. 8:With 5,000 stinging cells and tentacles that can kill the biggest of enemies, the box jellyfish has enough poison to kill 60 humans. 9:Two fangs filled with poison and the speed of a running man, Asian cobras cause almost 50,000 deaths every year. 10:These creatures can transfer a terrible disease called malaria that causes more than 2 million deaths around the world. What are they? Mosquitos silently sneak in and kill enormous amount of people every year. Beware of nature, for while nature is beautiful it is also dangerous.

I think the author wrote this article to inform readers about the ten most dealiest animals in the world to keep people safe and informed. I really liked this article because it taught me some new things about nature and to always be wary of all the dangers in life. This relates to me because I love the outdoors and I almost live in the wild. Being prepared is important and every little thing I don't take precaution against could be my enemy. Nature is kind and reveals various natural wonders but there is a bad side to everything and after reading this article, I am aware of the more sinister forces of nature. Top Ten Deadliest Animals
