The world's most dangerous animal (excluding man) are MALARIAL PARASITES of the genus PLASMODIUM carried by mosquitoes of the genus ANOPHELES, which, if we exclude wars and accidents, have probably been responsible directly or indirectly for 50% of all human deaths since the Stone Age. Even today, despite major campaigns to eradicate malaria, at least 200 million people are ailing by the disease each year, and more than one million babies and children die annually from it in Africa alone.
Some of the most dangerous land mamals are: Hippos, Elephants, the Big Cats, African Water Buffalos, Bears and Wild Boars.
That depends. Many animals are deadly in their own right. A black widow spider is deadly but not the deadliest. I suppose its how you view the animals. For example (I know I'm going back to prehistoric times here but it is easier) many people would argue that a T-rex is more deadly than a Raptor, but Raptors hunted in packs and are smarter than the T-rex. I personally would say a big cat is the most deadly, like a cheetah or a lion.
I found this: "Deadliest Animal
Female Anopheles mosquitoes, which carry malaria, kill more than a million people each year." Here: http://nationalzoo.si.edu/Animals/AnimalRecords/ For snakes it is probably the Russell's Viper.
The golden poison dart frog is considered one of the most toxic land animals. It is native to Colombia and contains enough venom to kill 10 adult humans.
