Yeah I've never heard of a honey badger, but it looks like it's about to eat that snake which is pretty cool.

Pretty much made fun of you for this list in chat something like 30 days ago... Still feel the same way.  |

It's just such a badass animal. The most fearless creature in the world and attacks anything from bees, cobras, birds, jackals, cheetahs, crocodiles, hyena and leopards. There is also one well known incident where one killed a lion by ripping off his testicles. I just love that way that this little unassuming creature is such a beast.

Great list Woo. A few glaring omissions though, two from the marine world:
The Box Jellyfish, and The Moray Eel. Both legends of deadliness.
Also, where is The Andean Condor, with the largest wingspan since the Archaeopteryx?
And finally, the humble chicken, the only animal that every other animal tastes like.
Nature's default taste.

The Box Jellyish was on my list! See the box jellyfish isn't an actual species in itsef, but rather a group of jellyfish. The most deadly of which is the Chironex Fleckeri, which was No.100 on my list. Rather low down perhaps, but they don't really do much other than float in the sea.....plus I have ben stung by a jellyfish in Spain and those things are arses!
The lowly chicken is at 115. I chose to use a picture of a baby chick though as at risk of sounding like a girl, they are so cute. Like the baby lamp the cuteness of their chicks is why it got fairly high.
I didn't have a condor on my list, because I was under the impression that the albatross (No.66) had the longest wing span, which I think it does.
The Moray Eel is a bad omission though. I chose the electric eel because, well because it's electric!, but it turns out that's not a proper eel so one of the morays really should have made it.

Lol I didn't notice the Chicken hiding away at 115.
Sorry.
Perhaps it scared to be noticed.
The Loon also would have made my list, due to it's immensely creepy almost supernatrally spooky cry.
*shudder*
