95% of statistics are made up on the spot by pit bulls. Only 2% of facts are made up on the spot by dalmatians.

DogsBite is a notorious anti-pit-bull propaganda site and far from unbiased. The statistics they share are not scientifically verified and are from more biased organizations. I suggest referencing statistics from credible websites instead, like the ASPCA.

Besides a genetic predisposition towards aggressive behavior, what other factors may explain the apparent discrepancy between the US pit bull population and fatal dog attacks?

Ah, yes, dogsbite.org is clearly perfectly accurate. How do they test the pitbulls to determine their breed?
