its a video story of 2 pitbulls who supposedly snuck into a womans house through a doggy door...and mauled a sleeping woman....now aside from the dogs acctually being"sicked" on the woman...i dont see any sense to the dog attacks what so ever...and i have had ALOT of experience with pitbulls both mean trained ones and nice homebody ones....even the trained fighting pitbulls dont just sneak into someboyds house and attack them while sleeping...? your thoughts

What gets me about the chimp attack is that it seemed cold-bloodedly hateful. Nose and Nuts? That was no defensive attack, that was mutilation."

Id probly do the same if someone put me in a cage..

I recall another incident at a Zoo, but it was discovered the visitor deliberately provoked the animal.

Also the tiger that attacked siegfield or roy in vegas, it was intrigued by a woman sitting in the audience it perceived as a threat, supposedly.

As for pit bulls, I don't trust them and won't visit anyone's home who has one, no matter how "gentle" it is.

Chimps can be quite nasty.

I've also heard Dolphins, which are usually a placid mammal, have attacked.

Eventually the animals fight back at humans who put them in cages or mistreat or hunt them.

Yep, dolphins do sometimes attack humans. But sometimes those attacks are not really intended to cause physical harm.

Also, there's reports of Jessica Alba working with dolphins and getting them kind of "excited." And there's a story of Susan Sarandon being attacked by a jealous female dolphin.

No idea about training pitbulls to attack people, but around here people do try to buy, failing that, steal your dogs to train to fight. Thankfully my dog's never been swiped, but theres so many cases of the dogs turning on the ones who trained them to do it, which I suppose makes sense if everytime you see this person your forced into a ring to viciously fight for your life.

At the end of the day, these are powerful wild animals, chimps or dogs, and can inflict seeeerious damage.

Yeah pitbulls are just naturally unpredictable and ruthless. They aren't pure bred they were creaed purely for fighting(Pit fighting "pit"bull)
it dosn't matter how well you train them they can snap just like that.
I remember about 6 years ago and i was about 10. I had a neighbour who trained and bred dogs and was real good at it and had a pitbull, i had been over and played with this dog because i've always loved dogs and it seemed harmless. about a week later there was a serious case with this dog down at the local park out of nowhere it ran across the feild and jumped on a little 7 yer old and ripped her face off
