Unironically the deadliest land animal
Dogs kill 50-70x as many people as hippos do, every year.
Which is terribly underperforming when you consider how many more dogs exist in proximity to humans compared to hippos. If a prankster wizard suddenly conjured a few million hippos into homes around the world you can bet they wouldn't settle for merely snuffing out 50x-70x more humans. On the upside, they'd definitely chomp a lot of people we don't like too
