When most people in Idaho hear the phrase “deadly animal,” they think of rattlesnakes on a hot trail, a mountain lion lurking in the foothills, or even a bear deep in the woods. But the numbers tell a different story—and it’s far closer to home than you might imagine. According to CDC data, between 2018 and 2023 there were 1,604 animal-related deaths nationwide, an average of 267 per year. What’s alarming is that this number is steadily climbing—up 38% in just five years. And the top culprit? Not snakes. Not cougars. Not even bears. It’s the buzzing stingers in your own backyard: hornets, wasps, and bees. Stinging Insects: America’s #1 Killer
