Mirko's also the number 5 hero, behind the likes of Endeavor and Hawks, and she goes on to show that she's more than ''earned'' her spot in the top 10.

pet rabbits can also bite


Of course, in RealLife, rabbits aren't always harmless. As wild animals, they can be pretty vicious when they need to be, particularly around mating season when fighting off rival suitors. Those big goofy teeth aren't just there to look cute and chop vegetables. They can really do some damage.
