In this documentary, we take a new perspective on animal danger by reviewing the species with the worst personalities and greatest predilections towards absolutely ferocious behavior\r
\r
Sun Bear\r
Bears possess some of the most disagreeable personalities in the animal kingdom. While the Grizzly Bear immediately comes to mind as the most ferocious and dangerous bruin, it is ually a gentle giant compared to the true black sheep of the ursine rogues gallery. Weighing just 65 kilograms and measuring 1.5 meters in length, the Asian Sun Bear is the worlds smallest bear species, and the most ferocious, with the largest teeth in proportion to body size. \r
\r
Saltwater Crocodile\r
Forget the “Gentle Giant”—The worlds largest reptile also carries the most ferocious disposition. Saltwater Crocodiles reach lengths of over seven meters (23 ft) and may weigh up to 2,000 kg (4,400 lbs). \r
\r
Least Weasel\r
The Least Weasel is the worlds smallest carnivora. Just as the Sun Bear is the smallest, but most aggressive bear, the smallest carnivore is also the most ferocious hunter, pound for pound. Weighing only a few ounces and measuring around 20 centimeters, the unbelievably aggressive, hamster sized Least Weasel is capable of killing a European Rabbit up to five times its own size.\r
\r
Common Shrew\r
“Taming of the Shrew” makes an excellent title for a Shakespearean Comedy, it would be next to impossible to civilize these somewhat bloodthirsty insectivores. Shrews resemble mice, but are in f related to hedgehogs as a member of the insectivore group. Shrews distinguish themselves by their incredibly high metabolism, which gives them an extraordinarily high strung and vicious disposition. Shrews must eat constantly, and in order to sustain themselves, they savagely attack prey twice their own size, including mice, fish and frogs. \r
\r
Wolverine\r
Resembling a miniature bear, the Wolverine is in f the largest member of the weasel family. This stocky beast with iron jaws is notorious for possessing an almost demonic ferocity greatly out of proportion to the animals size. While some species are notable for their outright aggression, the Wolverine distinguishes itself as a public enemy through its absolute lack of fear while hunting. Weighing 15 to 30 kilograms, this overgrown weasel has been known to bring down deer, elk and mountain goats in a spectacular David and Goliath predation routine. \r
\r
Black Mamba\r
Cloaked in the color of death and measuring over 14 feet in length, the Black Mamba is regarded as one of the most vicious snakes on the planet. It is also one of the most venomous. The Black Mamba is a habitat generalist, which means it can appear in any environment within its vast African range, including swamps, grasslands, and even villages.\r
\r
Bull Shark\r
\r
It may come as a surprise that the Bull Shark, and not the Great White Shark or Tiger Shark wins the “worst in the water” award. The Bull Shark is endowed with an extremely aggressive personality, and is in f considered by scientists to be the most vicious fish on the planet. \r
\r
Northern Goshawk: The Red-eyed Terror\r
\r
The Northern Goshawk is the largest of the bird eating forest hawks, with a wingspan of 4 feet. Fierce red eyes, dark grey feathers and massive talons to take down large prey add to its terrifying appearance. Its extremely territorial behavior presents danger and incredible displays of feathered ferocity. If a human appears to be a threat to the Goshawks nest, this ferocious raptor will swoop down and deliver scalp ripping blows.\r
\r
Gray Wolf\r
\r
The Wolf has been featured in a range of widely exaggerated legends attesting to its alleged ferocity throughout history. A backlash of information promoting the peaceful elements of the lupine personality has overtaken the fearful drama of the past. What has been lost from sight is the true ferocity of the wolf that conspired to create the legends in the first place. \r
\r
Wild Boar\r
\r
Just as the Gray Wolf remains as a fully wild version of our domestic dogs, the Wild Boars that gave us our domestic pigs present a stark and at times exceedingly dangerous contrast to the domestic animal. Wild Boars are located across Europe and Western Asia, inhabiting a range of woodland and farmland habitats.
