It is of interest that in Rhodesia deaths caused by animals are far fewer than those caused by man himself. Besides murders and traffic accidents, there are ten times as many deaths amongst Africans due to suicide (Castle and Rittey, in publication), as there are from all the animal species added together and reported here.

A CAJM survey on population of humans killed by animals.
