A study comprised data from 2001 to 2013 on animals that caused the most human deaths per year. It was noted that shark attacks should be on the bottom of our priority lists, and it is actually bees, wasps, and hornets that cause the highest number of animal related human deaths. These bees even beat out mammals such as deer, that are common factors in vehicular deaths. Bees, wasps, and hornets on average cause 58 human deaths per year, leading them to be the deadliest creatures.
