1.Viper.
Well, who else but a snake can top that rating? This poisonous snake is very widespread in the European part of Russia. Its size is very modest - its length is no more than 60-80 centimeters. Depending on their habitat, vipers have different colors: black, brown, brown, brown, yellow, orange and others. The most active time of these reptiles is in May-September when the viper can be seen not only in the forest or in the meadow, but also the countryside.
The viper itself never attacks, only in case of a potential threat to itself. She has a very painful bite - a burning pain begins in the area of impact, the skin turns red and the wound is inflamed. With a large dose of poison, the victim experiences dizziness, nausea and vomiting and other signs of intoxication. Ordinary viper poison kills very rarely, but can cause significant complications: liver and kidney failure, necrosis of affected tissues, etc. Every year more than 1000 people suffer from viper bites in Russia.
2.Amur tiger.
The Russian, Amur or Far Eastern tiger is one of the most formidable wildlife species found in Russia. Its habitat is located in the Far East. The body length of this cat reaches up to 4 meters at a weight of 150-250 kilograms. During hunting, the Amur tiger easily accelerates faster than 50 km/h. Its diet includes deer, roe deer, wild boars and smaller mammals, including rodents.
Careful tigers try to avoid encounters with humans, so they bypass human settlements. However, their attacks on people are rare. If a tiger is aggressive at such a meeting, a person has few chances. But the man himself turned out to be more dangerous for the tiger, making him almost destroyed by his activity.
3.Brown bear.
The classic and formidable predator of Russia is the brown bear. Its habitat is forests and taiga. Brown bears reach a length of three meters, and their weight reaches 600 kg. The bear is not exactly a predator, it is an omnivorous animal, able to feed on both animal and plant food. Bears also do not show aggressiveness to humans if they do not feel threatened. Most often, they are the hunters' beneficiaries. The most dangerous are the bears raising their offspring - protecting the bears, the bear will attack the person next to her lair without hesitation.
4.Wolf.
The wolf remains a dangerous predator in the Russian expanses. But this relative of a dog can attack a person in two situations - if he is hungry or in self-defense. The length of adults reaches 165 centimeters, in the withers of about a meter, and the weight can be from 35 to 80 kilograms. Together they hunt large ungulates - deer, elk, wild boars, and with a weaker man they will be able to cope with it without any difficulty. Often wolves come closer to the villages in severe winters, where they start to pick on livestock regularly.
5.Kaban.
A wild boar or a wild boar is also in the top ten of Russia's dangerous animals. The animal is quite large (body length up to two meters, and weight up to 200 kilograms). Wild boars live in forests, as well as in wetlands with dense grass and other vegetation. Especially dangerous for a man adult wild boars in the rut period, then angry males are ready to attack the man who turned up and their huge fangs cause him many lacerations.
