16. Leopards

There isn’t a lot of data about how many people leopards kill, but some have suggested that it’s in the hundreds each year. Just like tigers and lions, they can be man-eaters. There are several examples of it in history; certain leopards killed more than a hundred people just by themselves.

When it comes to big cats, the human deaths per year are highly variable, since some man-eaters have killed a lot more than others. Plus, there might not even be a man-eater for some time, in which case deaths are just from accidental meetings. Like tigers, leopards are mostly killing people in India.
