If we are talking about actual danger then it is easily a pitbull. Those things are like fricking chain chomps from mario and even the "tame" ones are no good. Not to mention a lot of the owners are shitty too so even if there are a few """good""" ones, most of the owners are idiots from the hood or ghetto who don't know how to tame or care for any animals, let alone dangerous ones. The pitbull also has the dangerous advantage of being allowed anywhere other dogs are, generally, which lets their moronic owners put the dogs within toddler eating range.
If we are talking about actual danger, then probably a stone fish or some other kind of venomous creature. I actally sold a few of these when I worked at an aquarist store and since I live on the east coast of North American we don't have the antivenom for stone fish anywhere even close to here. So if some moron got pricked by it, they'd probably be sent to the hospital and given their last rites. BUT in terms of actual danger, at least wherd live the stonefish isn't that bad because it's so niche that almost nobody has one, plus everyone already knows how dangerous they are (it's the only notable thing about them) and they can only live in a super well adjusted and well cycles aquarium where it's unlikely that they'll even come into touching contact with a person.
Pitbulls. I'd genuinely be more comfortable around a komodo dragon or a crocodile than a pitbull since they are more predictable and less aggressive out of nowhere
>some cartel guy
You mean Pablo Escobar, THE cartel guy? >Did they ever solve that?
nah. They were gonna cull them but a bunch of Brazilians who don’t know what hippos are like kicked up a fuss and stopped it. Pretty sure a couple people have already been killed by the hippos
Black mamba
Or any poisonous snake if you don't know how to handle them. And even if you "know" in fact.
Someone once said, "Snakes know no men. Only fools."
No, it has venom in its bite. They are remarkably hard to tick off however and their rings telegraph their discomfort. Getting bit by one is impressive in the same way as a Gila monster bite. You really have to earn it.
I would have to say its a tossup between a gaboon viper and a black mamba.
Gaboon viper >longest fangs of any snake, second fastest strike at anywhere between 175 to 200 mph, second largest venom yield and dumps absolute frickloads of venom in a single bite, literally dozens of times what's considered a lethal dose for an average sized man >venom wienertail is horrendous - "In humans, a bite from a Gaboon viper causes rapid and conspicuous swelling, intense pain, severe shock, and local blistering. Other symptoms may include uncoordinated movements, defecation, urination, swelling of the tongue and eyelids, convulsions, and unconsciousness." >severe necrosis in the affected area, even if you live you're probably going to be losing whatever limb got bit >Sudden hypotension, heart damage >your fricking blood may stop clotting so you risk bleeding out from the necrosis >they're generally somewhat docile and spend the overwhelming majority of the time completely motionless, which is actually WORSE in this case because it can lead you into a false sense of security and put you in a position where it can tag you, which it can literally do faster than you can react to it.
Black Mamba >too long to handle safely, can easily double back on any snake hook and strike you if it wants >notoriously angry bois >literally the fastest snake on the planet, can outrun an average person >the venom isnt as horrific as the gaboon viper's but its quite a bit more deadly - if you get envenomated, you're likely well on your way to a coma by the time you get to a hospital, and if they dont have antivenom in stock and have to get it from somewhere else, you'll likely be dead before it gets to you.
Of course there are precautions you could take to limit risk with either of these animals, but limiting is not the same as eliminating, and if youre dealing with an animal that can move faster than you can and kill with a touch, your life is at risk with every interaction.
I’d rather get bitten by the mamba but a gaboon viper is probably way safer since they’re pretty docile and obviously not gonna come leaping out of the enclosure at you
Are Komodos that dangerous? Yeah, they and Alligators could frick you up, but they tend to do really well in captivity.
Outside of Salties, crocs and lizards in general seem fairly tame if you aren't a complete moron. I would include all reptiles but I don't know how ornery venomous snakes are.
>I don't know how ornery venomous snakes are
depends on species. as a whole they're no worse than non venomous snakes. a rock python or scrub python is meaner than just about any venomous species
>a rock python or scrub python is meaner
You're still far more likely to get tagged by a venomous snake and die than get constricted by an afrock/scrub
Well sure but the question was about how ornery venomous snakes are. Even then that still depends on species, a 20 ft python is probably a thousand times more likely to kill you than a variable bush viper for example
For the general public? Big dogs. Herp and Invert keepers at least know what they're getting into, I would hope.
All big monitors are dangerous. Croc Monitors, Asian Water Monitors, Blackthroats, etc. Even if they are being friendly, they could hurt you pretty bad. Most of the giant ones are pretty calm and even tempered iirc.
I would be more scared of something like an Argus or Lace monitor and their crazy feeding response, though.
>Dangerous if they bite
Its not that bad really unless you have a severe reaction. its just a painful welt that goes away in a day or two.
A good trick for spider bites of all kind is to run the bite under hot water (not scalding, but as hot as you can stand) for as long as you can. The heat breaks down the proteins in the venom and renders it inert.
If you look at other videos of people getting bit by the same bugs, you can see they don't immediately start wailing and spazzing. He's hamming it up a lot.

Easily the North American house hippo. They're responsible for hundreds of deaths every year.
Pitbulls. I'd genuinely be more comfortable around a komodo dragon or a crocodile than a pitbull since they are more predictable and less aggressive out of nowhere
I hate shitbulls too but isn't that because you would have more interactions with a dog than a lizard? Gotta take it to walks and shit.
Depends on how hard you are.
I'd say the chimp because he can frick you up and is intelligent enough to hide his intentions
Statistically, a bull is probably the most dangerous animal that you can keep without needing extra permits in most developed countries.
I've kept multiple phoneutria.
Anthrax colony
Surprised nobody’s mentioned it yet
Didn't some cartel guy cause south america to get overun by hippos as an invasive species because he had them as pets? Did they ever solve that?
>some cartel guy
You mean Pablo Escobar, THE cartel guy?
>Did they ever solve that?
nah. They were gonna cull them but a bunch of Brazilians who don’t know what hippos are like kicked up a fuss and stopped it. Pretty sure a couple people have already been killed by the hippos
>It was Pablo
God damn him again?
>People kicked a fuss
And now Hippos kicked people... Yeah I feel bad for the locals who got fricked over ngl
>did mexicans ever solve a problem that wasn’t landscaping related
theyre in colombia, like six countries away from mexico

For about 70 bucks this poisonous escape artist psycho is yours!
Don't you have to eat it for it to hurt you?

Find yourself a nice cluster B girlfriend with a gun and a coke problem.

Komodos have saliva that is poison and razor sharp teeth.
Demeanor-wise.

They're only ornery because they got them big fangs, and no tooth brush.

I draw the line at venomous inverts
>Black widows
>Dangerous
Lolno
I pick em up too
Dangerous if they bite regardless of how low the chances of a bite are.
And widows aren't the only venomous invert

Looks like it'll pop like a grape in your mouth
What do black widows taste like?

This psycho gets bit on purpose to prove everyone is a pussy, and has a miserable night.
>did it on my arm for safety

This was stupid but the rest of his videos do just go to show how all the other sting videos like those from coyote are bullshit
>all the other sting videos like those from coyote are bullshit
How are coyote's videos bs? You see close up uncut footage of his ass getting bit.
If you look at other videos of people getting bit by the same bugs, you can see they don't immediately start wailing and spazzing. He's hamming it up a lot.
