Deadliest animal on the planet, by a large margin.
I feel like Homo sapiens sapiens is not getting its due, here.
“Mosquitoes kill around 760,000 to 1 million people each year, while humans kill roughly 400,000 to 600,000 other humans annually”
I’m not very proficient in Spanish, so I don’t see where those numbers come from, but they’re clearly incomplete. Traffic deaths alone were 1.34 million in 2023, and unless it was mosquitoes driving…
Yeah but what if you count three killing of all species? Pretty sure that brings us into the billions.
Agriculture alone already kills billions of farmed animals every year.
