It really depends on what you consider "dangerous".
For example due to vehicle accidents hundereds of people are killed each year because of deer. Does that make them dangerous? Or look at mosquitos, mosquitos as a whole are not dangerous but the parasite they can carry (causes malaria) is... so would you consider the mosquito or the parasite dangerous? Even still look at something like sharks. They are extremely powerful and can be dangerous but they are lucky to kill a handful of people a year (4 deaths in 2006). So would they be dangerous?
Overall though the science world factors everything in, being the number of deaths/attacks as well as the potential to be dangerous.
Because of that most lists include the following. Various species of insects, pets, parasites, venomous reptiles and amphibians and jellyfish. On a larger scale you also have river hippos, crocodiles, elephants and species of big cats.

Definitely the woman. Woman is in fact the most dangerous creature; far more dangerous than Man. Without women to "protect", most wars would have no real basis.

most dangerous animal? well....animals aren't really all that dangerous, but i s'pose in terms of living organisms, bacteria (viruses) are probably the most dangerous. Millions of people die from viruses every year and what, 20 die from being mauled by an animal?!?

Yep. my friend's baby never went outside their home yet she died of dengue fever because of a mosquito bite.
Dengue is also a virus, but we're not sure if viruses are animals, they are also like plants. So I go with mosquito

Mosquitoes. Mosquitoes infect 500 million people around the world each year with diseases, such as encephalitis and malaria. Mosquito-induced diseases kill more than 2 million people around the world each year.

Believe it or not KILLER ANTS are the most dangerous because since they are so small you never know were they are and they are venomous.
