The 6 most dangerous animals (and where to find them)
The saltwater crocodile
Australia
A deadly reptile. In the land of Crocodile Dundee, in Kakadu National Park, we find this fearsome six-metre long namesake. The most sensible thing to do is wave to it from a cruise ship.

The green anaconda
Brazil
The biggest snake in the world. It can exceed eight metres in length and reach up to 200 kilos. You can find it in the Pantanal region of Brazil, although on second thoughts it’s best if you don’t look for it…

The Bengal tiger
India and Bangladesh
“I thought I saw a pussycat…”. That’s what Tweety Pie would probably say on a safari in the Sundarbans region. This “pussycat” is the biggest feline in the world and is capable of hunting wild water buffalos.

The blue whale
Sri Lanka
The biggest animal in the world. Thirty metres long and weighing 180 tons: almost nothing! They are in danger of extinction, but you can probably see one from Dondra Head cape between December and April.

Hippopotamus
Africa
Don’t judge a book by it’s cover. Despite their relaxed appearance, they are very aggressive…so if one yawns you’d better run because it’s a threatening sign. They can be found especially in Eastern Africa.

Blue dart frog
Surinam
A story…a horror story. Don’t think for a moment that if you kiss it, it’ll turn into a prince. It’s more likely that you’ll have to be taken to hospital, because its glands secrete poisonous toxins that it uses for its defence.
