What is the deadliest animal in the world? Sharks are pretty scary, and snakes even more so. Ask anyone, and they’ll probably tell you that humans are the deadliest animal. Humans do kill a lot of other humans, but the creature that kills the most humans on earth every year is the mosquito. Check out a picture a redditor posted that illustrates how they can kill you. Then learn about mosquitos, the danger they pose, and what the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation is doing about mosquitos. -via the Presurfer
That redditor is Bill Gates. Some pretty cool stuff he's doing.

I like to think of it as "environmentalists use junk science to ban DDT and kill hundreds of thousands of people per year."

Insect vectors kill humans indirectly, though. Instead of "Tsetse fly", they should list "Trypanosome", for instance.
