“Most dangerous” is misleading. Yes, they appear on various top-ten lists if dangerous animals, and you should never approach one, but the annual deaths are only in the triple digits. Mosquitos and humans are a vastly bigger threat.

Looking at some lists of the most dangerous animals, most deaths seem to be a result of the animals spreading diseases or using venom. The only animal most people need to be worried about killing them using size and strength is another person.

Hanlon’s razor does not apply when politics are involved. Especially with Russia, since we know their military is full of murderous assholes.

Probably mistook it for a military plane and didn’t bother to confirm, same as with MH17.

That’s not solving op’s problem.
