Why are certain animals and insects docile towards humans like tarantulas, banana ball pythons and dolphins? Some may be due to selective breeding or captivity but how much of a creatures genetic makeup determines whether or not it will eat my face?
In: Biology
Any predator will try eating your face if they are hungry enough but most of the time, we are deemed not worth the trouble. We are relatively large compared to most other animals and to animals we evolved in a close proximity we aren’t identified as easy prey. That is because humans and our predecessors have been using weapons like spears for hundreds of thousands of years, we are pack hunters and we got unrivaled stamina in hot environments.
