#1 African Elephant

An African elephant is thought to be responsible for 500 deaths per year.
Elephants, the largest terrestrial creatures on the planet, may be unpredictable. Even when not provoked, older bulls and young, inexperienced males can be hostile (usually during musth, their sexually active period, when testosterone levels increase)

#2 Nile Crocodile

The Nile Crocodile is thought to be responsible for 300 deaths every year.
Crocodiles are Africa's greatest freshwater carnivores and are fascinating to watch.
