What is more deadly stingrays or sharks?

Although both stingrays and sharks can be dangerous, sharks are generally considered more deadly to humans. According to the Florida Museum of Natural History, there have been 80 fatal shark attacks in the United States since 1882, compared to only 2 fatal stingray attacks in the same time period. Additionally, sharks are more likely to attack humans unprovoked, while stingrays typically only attack when they are stepped on or otherwise disturbed.
