Huh, didn't think this was true on first glance, but it is if taken worldwide. In the US, bites are still high, but there are very few deaths from them. Most of the deaths come from rabies in countries that don't have widely available rabies vaccines. This seems like a solvable problem like tuberculosis if greed didn't get in the way. https://www.terrierowner.com/dogs/people-killed-by-dogs-each-year-according-to-world-health-organization/

The top human killing animal is other humans. Dogs are just chillin.

People who hate dogs and spread lies about them are the worst.

Misleading. People get rabies from dog bites and die when they are not treated. Cows kill a lot more people directly then dogs.
