I too wanted to post the mosquito. Top in kills anywhere ever
As far as just plain dangerous. I'd go with the hippo. Both of these are not predators. My above is not a knock. Just saying.
My top predator. Has to be the male lion. The king.

yup lions come in at #3 on my list. couple things i like about them:
1. team work-seeing the whole pride take down an adult elephant in dry season was incredible
2. i love how the male lions give exactly zero fucks. a fucking brother is flirting with your gals while you're gone?oh it's on.
2 males, tale to tale, staring down like 25 hyenas? how is that even possible?
and i love how the horny males just straight up go for it. and the females have no problem blowing the dudes off if they aint carrying their weight.
3. tenacity and a coin flip-a female coulda lost everything, gotten banned to the hinterland, but if a pair of nomadic brothers show up outta nowhere, suddenly it's game on, bitch. she gonna build her kingdom, and be comin for yours faster than you can say lickety split..
honestly, i can't see a male lion running from another beast on the planet in fear. they might know humans are lethal, but it'd be more like "dicey to attack" versus "i'm legit scared n gonna run from this predator".
