The last data I remember seeing from the National Center for Health Statistics showed that there was somewhere between 100 and 125 horse related deaths in the U.S. annually. Also, there were on average 50 deaths per year by insects, about 20 deaths per year by dogs and around 5 per year each for spiders and venomous snakes.
