The record is prolly clouded by the fact that they are scavengers  
that would cheerfully snack on a corpse - people would then assume  
that the lost hiker was killed by them rather than their own  
stupidity. Trouble is that too many people prefer absolute positions  
- always/never - I'm happy to accept that it has happened but not  
commonly.
We get our priorities wrong anyway. The most dangerous dog is that  
thing  curled up on the rug at home - they kill a goodly number of  
humans every year and not because they're just seriously hungry. Of  
course, they get far more opportunity.
