There are many dangerous creatures in the world, which can kill anyone in a moment. From lion to cheetah, snake to scorpion. These are such creatures, which can hunt someone with their claws, and can kill someone with their poison. But if we talk about the most dangerous creature for humans, then you will be surprised to know its name. BBC Earth Focus had released a list of dangerous creatures a few months ago. In this list, the tiger missed out on making it to the top 10. At the same time, lion, cheetah, snake, scorpion also lagged behind in taking human lives. Then you must be thinking that when these dangerous animals are not included in this list, then who is the enemy of human life? In such a situation, let us tell you that this is a small creature, which is also found in our homes.
The name of this creature is mosquito, which not only survives by sucking our blood, but also kills us by doing so. According to BBC Earth Focus, more than 7 lakh 25 thousand people die every year across the world due to mosquitoes. Diseases ranging from dengue to malaria occur due to these mosquitoes. If it is not treated at the right time, then it slowly drags a person into the lap of death. In such a situation, one should never make the mistake of underestimating the mosquito. We need to be careful about it. According to the death statistics, it is considered the most dangerous for humans.

According to a report, humans kill about 4 lakh people every year around the world. This is only a matter of normal crimes. It does not include murders related to war and other crimes. On the third place are snakes like cobra, krait, taipan, due to which 1 lakh 38 thousand people die every year. On the fourth place are dogs. Yes, we keep it in our homes, but it is also a killer of humans. According to the report, 60 thousand people lose their lives due to dogs around the world, while on the fifth place is an insect called Assassin Bug, which kills more than 10 thousand people every year. It sucks people’s blood, which causes a dangerous disease.
