Saltwater Crocodile

This huge creature, which can grow up to 20 feet in length from nose to tail and weigh up to 1,000 kilograms, is known as the Saltwater Crocodile. This opportunistic predator, which can be found in large numbers in India, Australia, and Micronesia, does not show pity to its prey. If you find yourself trapped between its formidable jaws, you might as well say a prayer for protection. Unfortunately, there is no second chance for people who have been the victims of a crime. The Saltwater Crocodile is one of the largest crocodiles on the planet, and it has the strongest bite of any animal on the planet today. They are frequently ambushed before being drowned and devoured — or in some cases, swallowed whole – by the predators. According to specialists, this is the species most likely to consume a human, and the number of people who have had their lives cut short by a crocodile’s jaws is not insignificant. Take extra precautions while near brackish waterholes and out on the ocean, where crafty crocs are known to lie beneath the surface, ready to strike with terrible results. It is well known that the saltwater crocodile has a strong predisposition to see humans as prey and that it has a lengthy history of attacking humans who enter its territorial waters. It is only suggested that you entirely avoid their environment whenever possible when dealing with saltwater crocodiles since they get extremely angry when their area has trespassed and it is unlikely that you would survive an attack by one of these predators. According to one study, saltwater crocodiles carry out 30 attacks every year, with 50% of the attacks resulting in death (wikipedia). Although specific data on attacks outside of Australia are scarce, this is due to the fact that people and saltwater crocodiles coexist in relatively undeveloped, low-income, and rural areas, where attacks are more likely to go undetected than in urban areas.

Hyena

Hyenas are well-known scavengers, so you may suppose they pose little threat to the living. However, this is not the case. You’d be completely wrong. Although the striped hyena is known to prey on animal corpses and carcasses, the spotted hyena is a dangerous predator that should be avoided at all times. As much as 95 percent of their food is consumed by spotted hyenas as they hunt animals of all sizes and shapes in their native African habitats. Humans are not safe from these deadly nocturnal carnivores, who have been known to attack at any time of day or night. Make no mistake about it: This is a serious situation. Spotted hyenas are smart man-eaters, no matter how you look at them. Hyenas are arguably most recognized for their distinctive sounds, but coming face to face with one is not something to be taken lightly. This beast is extremely hazardous due to its large claws, razor-sharp fangs, and bone-crushing jaws. Outrunning a hungry hyena, which is fearsome and swift, is not an option. Take our advice: be prepared, take precautions, and stay away from dangerous situations.
