Danger Ratings
Every profile carries a danger rating describing the risk to a person, not to other animals. A blue whale is enormous and rated Low, because it has no interest in you. Ratings reflect what the animal can do and how likely it is to do it.
Deadly
Species with venom, bite force, or hunting ability sufficient to kill a person. Most want nothing to do with us, which is the only reason the numbers stay low.
64 speciesExtreme
Animals that cause serious harm without necessarily being lethal. Broken bones, deep wounds, and venom that ruins a week.
9 speciesHigh
Powerful animals that will defend themselves decisively. Give them distance and almost nothing happens.
34 speciesMedium
Creatures with real weapons and little interest in using them on anything your size.
86 speciesLow
The overwhelming majority of life on Earth. Harmless to humans, and frequently far more interesting for it.
