"9 Most Deadly Animals in British Columbia!"

1. Wolf

1. Wolf

"Gray wolves (Canis lupus) are wild animals. There are about 8,500 wolves in this province."

The Canadian government kills hundreds of wolves every year, as an effort to save the endangered caribou. A horrific incident occurred in 2020 when a man in northwestern B.C. suffered serious injuries after being attacked in his front yard by a wolf. The animal was then trapped and shot.

2. Bison

2. Bison

"Although bison are mostly raised on farms in British Columbia, there are still populations of two subspecies of wild bison in the province. They are the wood bison (Bison bison athabascae) and the plains bison (Bison bison bison)."

"Bison are large animals weighing between 1,800 and 2,400 pounds (816 to 1,088 kilograms). All of these characteristics increase the risk when humans encounter them, especially in Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming, where bison often charge and throw tourists who do not keep their distance."

3. Wild boar

3. Wild boar

"Wild boar, also known as wild pig or wild hog, are descendants of domestic pigs. Wild boars can weigh over 220 pounds (75 kilograms) and are considered an invasive species in Canada and the US."

Here is the translated text with HTML tags preserved: "Wild boars usually attack by charging. Their long, sharp tusks can cause serious and sometimes fatal injuries. The current concern among experts is that the Canadian 'super pigs' are evolving to become larger, stronger, and have better survival skills."

<b>4. Cougar</b>

The translation of "4. Cougar" from 'Bahasa' to 'English' is simply "4. Cougar". There are no additional changes needed, and the HTML tags are preserved as there are none present in the text.

"Cougar (Puma concolor) is the largest wild cat in Canada capable of killing large deer weighing 500 pounds. This province is now home to about 3,500 pumas, which have characteristics of super long tails, short fur, and cat-like paw prints."

"Although these animals have extraordinary hunting abilities, it seems that humans are not included in their menu. Attacks on humans are rare, and these secretive cats usually try to avoid them. Cougars primarily eat deer, rabbits, beavers, and raccoons."

<b>5. Beruang grizzly</b>

"5. Grizzly bear"

"Grizzly bears (Ursus arctos horribilis) have no natural enemies, except for humans. Although they are nearly extinct in 48 states in the United States, estimates suggest that there are still around 10,000 grizzly bears in British Columbia. However, their numbers continue to decline in the region."

"During the period from 2010 to 2021, there have been 104 grizzly bear attacks in the province. Fatal incidents, such as in 2023 where a couple and their dog were killed by a grizzly in the neighboring country, Alberta."

"6. Black bear"

The Canadian government estimates that between 120,000 and 160,000 black bears (Ursus americanus) inhabit British Columbia. In the region alone, Vancouver Island, there are more than 10,000 individuals.

"The black bear is a great climber and swimmer and can run at speeds of nearly 30 miles per hour. Although there are so many bears in this province, attacks on humans, such as those that occurred in 2022, are rare."

<b>7. Ular derik</b>

7. Rattlesnake

"British Columbia only has one type of rattlesnake, which is the Northern Pacific rattlesnake (Crotalus oreganus oreganus). The bite of this venomous snake can be fatal if antivenom is not administered in a timely manner."

The average is only a handful of people who are bitten by venomous snakes in this province each year. Most of these incidents occur when people try to handle the snakes. Rattlesnakes are usually not aggressive and prefer to stay away from us. This means they will attack if threatened or provoked.

<b>8. Singa laut</b>

The translation of "8.\u00a0Singa laut" to English is "8. Sea lion".

"Although they appear tame, it is best to observe them from a safe distance! The jaws of this marine mammal have great strength and are known to carry unique and potentially harmful bacteria in their mouths."

"In British Columbia, there are several reports of sea lion attacks on humans that seem to be unprovoked. One of them involves a young girl who was grabbed and dragged into the water by a sea lion while sitting on the dock."

"9. Black Widow"

The Western black widow (Latrodectus Hesperus) is one of the venomous spiders found in British Columbia.

"The venom produced by the black widow spider is quite potent, even 15 times stronger than that of a rattlesnake. Its uniqueness lies in its ability to inject a relatively small amount of venom, which can be quickly diluted by the body. The bite of the spider is very painful and triggers muscle contractions."
