Default Most Dangerous Game?

What's your call? Or what would you fear to hunt the most? 1 of the big 5? I hear leopard is the scariest wounded animal...

Elephant?
Leopard?
Cape Buffalo?

I think the ultimate rush would be to stalk a 9 ft coastal Brown Bear in Alaska with a bow. Stupid, but exciting.

Obviously all the big cats such as leopard and lions would rank up there as well.But for some reason that bear, which would dwarf the kitties, seems more intimidating.

For Hunting....
African Elephant overtly aggressive.

BTW, elephant stomp teddy bear.

Then add croc, hippo, and black mamba just for side line players.
Africa hands down.

From what I understand it would be a close call between elepahant and hippo.

You aren't suppose to wound them.



On this continent I would say polar bear.

Of course the hippo kills more PPL than any other Big Five. But this isn't just hunters............wounded I have to think Dumbo.

I would say the Cape Buffalo. They have been know to run after being shot, double back then lay down and ambush anything that is following them.
