Even though they are beautiful animal wild creatures are unpredictable.
Dolphins have been know to ram into humans and killing them.

Do you know that more people are killed by captive deer than any other
creature?


A killer Bambi?

I love statistics:

According to CNN, who reviewed the average annual animal related
fatalities dogs had the highest fatalities due to an animal attack,
average 18/yr.

135 people a year die due to auto collision with a wild deer, not due to
a captive deer attacking a human..

But the real "creature" responsible for more human deaths than any other
"creature" is the mosquito which claims thousands
of human lives each year.

As I said earlier, 74.8% (or is it 67.9%) of all statistics are made up.
