It didn't say how many humans cause the deaths of humans in Australia, but if you just look up road traffic accident fatalities per year and then subtract the ones attributed to cows and horses all the rest are caused by humans. Probably some of the ones involving other species as well.

The Roman tyrant who (literally) thought he was a god. You really wouldn't have wanted to be alive during the latter part of his rule

Tell me about it!

I tried new moves a year ago and rose steadily and then in the last few months I've bottomed out! Chess sucks!
