LIONS & TIGERS & DEER, OH MY!

Apparently, we've been scared of the wrong animals all this time. Lately, we've had a slew of gator attacks here in sunny Florida, and a few years back it was a rash of shark attacks. But it seems that the real killer animal is the deer. Yup, Bambi's mom & dad, and probably Bambi himself are the creatures to watch out for(but not while swimming).
According to top secret data (why else wouldn't you already know this?) from the International Shark Attack File at the Florida Museum of Natural History, in the 1990s there was an average of 1 shark attack & 1 gator attack per year.
However...the annual rate of fatal(to humans) deer/motor vehicle collisions is 130!!

So, no more crying when Bambi's mother dies...yeah, I mean you...

I think elephants are the animals which kill the most humans in the world.

But let's face it, deer and elephants are simply not as scary as sharks.

Have you seen this Shark Attack map
