Analysis of Most Dangerous Animals



You don't see tigers or lions
Shooting each other
Or cutting each other with blades
You don't see chimps making bombs
to destroy each other
Or taking over lands
You don't see fishes colonizing each other
Or cats fighting in wars
But we do these
and a whole lot more
