      Apparently here in Pennsylvania you have a greater chance of being in a car accident caused by a deer than in any other state

      As a wildlife biologist, this map is… questionable. At best. Dangerous to humans? Is the „danger“ based on morbidity/ mortality or economic damage? Was this map based on *any* data, or just „this looks about right?“

      Texas has plenty of aligators. Louisiana (and the rest of the south really) has plenty of wild hogs. How is it that hogs are more dangerous in Tx meanwhile aligators are more dangerous on the rest of the coast? All of the states that say “alligator” should say wild hogs. Aligators don’t wanna bother you. Wild hogs will go out of their way to bother you if you scare them.

      Well I wouldn’t call Greg Abbott a feral hog, but the lack of healthcare access in Texas has lead to a lot of death.

      I’m pretty sure dogs would be #1 in every state if „dangerous“ means causing injuries.

      Are Moose or Black Bear supposed to outrank one another? Because there are definitely Moose in Minnesota and Michigan’s upper peninsula, and Black Bears in Maine, Vermont, and New Hampshire

      This seems more like „most famous large animal“ rather than the one that actually causes the most injuries or deaths. These “dangerous animal” lists always skip the real killer: *the white-tailed deer*. If you include car crashes, deer kill hundreds of people every year in the US, far more than bears, moose, or bison ever do.

      TIL….the Potomac river is full of Great White Sharks.

      Seriously, how the hell is DC the Great White? And there is no way the Great White is the most dangerous animal in MD and DE. It has to be deer.

      Can someone explain the great white shark? I’ve been a Maryland resident for 41 years and would have gone copperhead personally.

    19. TheBimpo on

      Yes, this map is stupid. Whitetail deer are involved in thousands and thousands of vehicle accidents every year, black bears are just big raccoons that don’t bother anybody.

      Alaska should be polar bear.

      Also, it says something that Alaska, Montana, and Wyoming have all of the animals in the first column, plus moose.

    23. DietDewymountains17 on

      The Maryland one it is not correct. Great white shark is not going to kill people in Maryland. There are literally no recorded attacks in modern history.

    25. whistleridge on

      If we’re going by deaths, the white-tailed deer is surely the most dangerous in pretty much every state east of the Mississippi. There’s something like 150-175 fatal collisions between vehicles and deer in any given year.

      If we’re going with all animals, then cows and dogs are definitely leading sources in most states.

      If we’re only going with wild animals…it still has some issues.

      Idaho has Grizzly bears, much rather encounter a mountain lion then surprise a Grizzly. Change that!

    28. kokemill on

      In Wisconsin it would be White Tailed Deer. Is the rest of your map just based on your imagination?

      „There were more than 17,000 crashes involving deer in Wisconsin in 2024, killing nine people and injuring 707“

      [https://www.jsonline.com/story/news/local/2025/10/15/wisconsin-saw-over-17000-crashes-involving-deer-in-2024-dot-says/86691837007/](https://www.jsonline.com/story/news/local/2025/10/15/wisconsin-saw-over-17000-crashes-involving-deer-in-2024-dot-says/86691837007/)

      „The agency said 15 people have been injured by black bears since 2013, including the incident this past weekend. No one has been killed by a wild black bear in the state’s recorded history.“

      North Dakota doesn’t have grizzly bear. Idaho and Washington do though.

    33. Fro_of_Norfolk on

      Here i was half expecting humans to be the top in pretty much every state…

    34. mazzicc on

      Based on what? Number of people killed/injured?

      Seems like mosquitos and ticks should be there if so.

    35. JuggaliciousMemes on

      I love that my state is yellow

      Everyone else is fighting scary monsters, we’re getting our ass kicked by bambi
