And, as it turned out, the victims of four-legged animals are men, and women in exceptional cases. Moreover, the probability of an attack on representatives of the stronger sex is 1,8 times higher than on women.

The author of the scientific paper Kari Westgarth claims that the calmer a person is, the less likely he is to become a victim of a dog. The fact is that these animals choose their victims exclusively among angry and annoying people.
