Easy, and it isn't even on your list. The king of the jungle ~ the LION!!! Here's the question. Would a lion beat a great white shark or hippo in a fight? Nope! It'd get its ass whomped! Therefore, it can't be more badass. Hell, lions have serious issues with hyenas. Hyenas are pretty bad in their own right, I suppose, but they are no hippos. BTW, apparently crocodiles routinely get their asses handed to them whenever they tangle with either hippos or tigers (though the tiger conflict has to be on land for the tiger to win; hippos rule either way). |

As much I love badgers... hippos would f*** everything up.
Ever seen two hippos fight? They are vicious.

Don't you people know anything about Polar Bears? They're the fiercest killers in the animal kingdom! Yet their homes are shrinking and they have a really high chance of dieing out, so it doesn't matter how tough they are. They basically are becoming the homeless retired boxing legends of the animal kingdom. |

They basically are becoming the homeless retired boxing legends of the animal kingdom. I think that was supposed to be a quote from a Kevin Smith shoot. He was talking about some insane director that had at one point in time been connected to the Superman films that had this thing for giant spiders and polar bears, for some damned reason. |

It was the studio head, not a director. He had read a script draft that had the bears and spider in it, and went ape over it cause it would have meant a fortune in toy/merchandising revenue. |

The answer is a crocodile (Specifically Saltwater), lethal in and out of water, intelligent and have survived pretty much the same since they first appeared over 200 million years ago before even the dinosaurs. They also appear on every continent in one form or another. It is bad ass when your species survives more than one attempt at global extiction. They are the Chuck Norris of the animal kingdom. ------ The rest and why they failed my test.Komodo Dragon - It may be the top of its food chain, but they only live on one isolated island. Despite the septic tank posion mouth trick in a fight with a crocodile it's buggered. The name I grant is cool, but it doesn't breathe fire so its a con artist. Great White Shark- The worlds best killing machine or just a very large hungry fish? Lost points for selling out to Steven Spielberg and eating Samuel L Jackson. Alligator Snapping Turtle - Its not badass because it can be kept as a pet. Hercules Beetle - Ants are more badass than this guy, Mosquitoes are more dangerous and Spiders want there money back for missing the poll. Sperm Whale - Whales are not badass, even ones that eat giant squid. Impressive yes, but not bad ass. Polar Bear - Came 2nd in my opinion, lives in arcitc extremes, is incredibly dnagerous looks cool. What didn't get it to the top spot? It's not 200 million years old and Global Warming might get you. Grizzly Bear - Eating berries and fruit when prey is short does not make you badass. Also Yogi. Hippo - They look dangerous, they are dangerous, they have huge dangerous mouths and are generally dangerous ... IF you live in or next to a wide river. Mongoose - Overhyped snake killer, lets see one take out an anaconda. Whats that oh you were crushed to death, damn!! Anaconda - Why is this not number one? Because its rather easy to capture once it's eaten. Seriously if I eat a deer whole I'm not moving for a year either. Asian Giant Hornet - Gets beaten by Japanaese Honey Bees that mass hug them to death. Peregrine Falcon - The bird world has lots of bad ass things, but in a world of sharp teeth, tentacles and posion. are feathered buddy isn't looking so good. Plus a Golden Eagle looks cooler. Bengal Tiger - Tiger lost for being associated with Tigger from Winnie the Pooh. Killer Whale - Orca sounds like some sort of wading bird you find on a beach, Killer Whale sounds better. The Bad ass of the sea no doubt, but it can't live on land. Special MentionMosquito  Tale of the Tape: Maximum Length = 16mm Maximum Weight = 2.4mg Claim to Fame: Deathbearer of Millions, The females of most mosquito species suck blood from other animals, which has made them the most deadly disease vector known, killing millions of people over thousands of years and continuing to kill millions per year by the spread of infectious diseases. Mosquitos are adept at infiltration and have been known to find their way into residences via deactivated air conditioning units. Plenty of predators, but as there are so many of them it makes little difference. |

Hippos.
Polar (and regular) bears, tigers, crocodiles and Komodo dragons are indeed dangerous and awesome, but the hippos have the "unexpected badass" factor going for them.

I'd give a nod to the Camel Spider too. God those things are nightmarish. I'd post a pic, but there's no way I'm google searching them again. Here ya go. Sweet dreams.  I had to go with the croc. It was bad-ass enough to live through whatever killed the dinosaurs. |

God, Salt Water crocodiles by a mile.
They are angry, vicous, deadly, angry, smart and have been essentailly untouched by nature since when Joker said.
These guys do some serious damage in the water.
