1. Cape Buffalo – The ‘Black Death’ That Charges Without Warning
Africa
Nicknamed “Black Death,” the Cape Buffalo kills more hunters than lions, leopards, or rhinos combined.
Silent stalkers: Unlike most big game, Cape Buffalos don’t flee when wounded… they hunt YOU instead.
Sneak attacks: Many hunters have shot a buffalo only to have it disappear—then suddenly charge from the bushes at full speed.
No stopping them: With 2,000 pounds of muscle and horns sharp enough to pierce a truck door, a single charge is often fatal.
One hunter shot a buffalo, thinking it was a clean kill. Seconds later, it came out of nowhere, crushing him under its weight. He survived… but his leg was shattered beyond repair.
