 It turns out man's best friend has a dark side. An estimated 28 Americans are killed by dogs each year; that's compared to the 44 percent of us that own one. Unfortunately, many of these attacks are carried out by dogs that were mistreated by humans in their past.

 Every arachnophobe fears this spider most: the black widow. Found most often in western states, these spiders sometimes make their way into bags of produce and faraway kitchens. They kill around seven Americans a year

 The assassin bug, more innocently known as the kissing bug, causes about 12,000 deaths a year. It bites people on the face (hence it’s nickname) giving them a parasitic infection known as Chagas disease. You’ll definitely want to avoid this little bug's kisses.

 Bears, alligators, and mountain lions are probably the animals that many Americans fear most. After all, the rare bear or mountain lion attack makes headlines for days, and accounts from survivors are often terrifying. But the truth is, each of these species tends to fatally attack just one American each year. That's the same number of deaths that occur a year as a result of—you guessed it—sharks!

 In a typical year, one American is fatally attacked by a shark. Additionally, there tends to be around 16 non-fatal attacks each year. Only three species of sharks are responsible for all of these unprovoked attacks: the great white, the tiger shark, and the bull shark.

 Close your eyes and picture your Frosted Flakes not with Tony the Tiger, but … Katy the Kangaroo? In 1952, Kellogg’s rolled out boxes of the cereal festooned with Tony, Katy, and two other potential mascots: Elmo the Elephant and Newt the Gnu. Tony was the most popular of the four, and the rest is history.
