6. Lion
The mighty Lion, known as the king of the jungle, cannot be left out of this list. Standing at around 4 feet tall and weighing up to 400 pounds, Lions can be a threat to humans, although they usually avoid attacking them. Most recorded cases of lion attacks are linked to sick or injured males that see humans as vulnerable prey. Once a lion successfully hunts a human, the chances of future attacks may increase. Over 500 lion attacks are reported every year, so it’s important to be cautious when encountering them.
