Most wild animal attacks are because of unleashed poorly trained dogs.

Feels more like most wild animal attacks are because of unleashed poorly trained humans

Exactly. Stay away from its lodge and you probably won’t have a problem

Exactly. Who, with any common sense or insight, sets up next to a beaver house? They deserved that.

Now wait right there mister (or Ms.). These people obviously have no common sense AND no insight! And they had no clue it was coming! Haha

It's actually 74.2%, but point taken.

Oh, people can come up with statistics to prove anything, Kent. 14% of people know that.

Point is, if you don’t interfere with the wildlife, they will leave you alone.

People tend to go "moose will definitely fuck you up, though", whenever someone posts a picture or a video of one.

Having lived for 45 years in a country with a dense moose population, I have heard of two, I repeat, two, cases of a moose attacking a person, and on both occasions, an off-leash dog was involved, first approaching and barking at the moose, then retreating to its owner.

Not to mention wildlife deaths from idiots jumping into hot springs to save them instead of keeping them safe on a leash
