the buffalo is regarded as the most dangerous animal to pursue in Africa, let alone the world

Did he invert the normal order of the expression?

I think the meaning he was going for here would have been better represented by “the buffalo is regarded as the most dangerous animal to pursue in Africa, possibly the world”.

I don’t see how the idiom “let alone” would be ideal in this context at all, even if he wrote “the buffalo is regarded as the most dangerous animal to pursue in the world, let alone Africa”.
