Which animal?

[The Fear]

A pleasant little question...

Which animal kills the most human beings each year?

 

[gator]

I do beleive that could be the Hippo if not it's Rhino.

 

[The Fear]

Nope.

Next guess....

 

[gator]

Other humans?

 

[Freeman14]

Iain Duncan Smith?

 

[The Fear]

Incorrect. ..

 

[gator]

Well i'm quite sure the Hippo kills the most through attacks so it has to be through consumption or disease?

 

[Trekker]

Insect is the mosquito, animal I'm not sure

 

[The Fear]

Mosquitoes is the correct answer.

Gator had number two sussed, humans.

 

[The Fear]

Insects are animals btw trekker!

Yeah there's nothing to touch Malaria we have had a couple of false dawns in mad cow and bird flu but that stupid little fly has no peers.

That's so reassuring JF, cheers. We have more than a fair share of mosquitos over here, but with barrier cream I can manage to keep the bites down to a bearable number.

Over here, we find they are more active in the morning between 6 - 8 am and again between @ 4.30 - 6pm.... that is sun up and sun down.
