   Yeah, us Southerners feel left out too! Especially us Florida Southerners!

How about:

   Alligators, a few salt water crocks, water moccasins, sharks, pythons, wild boars, angry beachfront owners....😁👍👍

It seems to me people are the main predators and the most dangerous to other people, not the wildlife.

In Australia many of the critters and creatures can kill you yet very little does, for the most part very few people have problems.  The only one I'd be scared of is those crazy drop bears!!!!

   Agreed Simon!

   Their not an occasional risk here, but an ever present danger, depending where you hunt! 😔 Animals are at least honest, and somewhat predictable, in their behavior! I wanted to keep it light, so I didn't throw humans in the mix!!🍀👍👍
