>>1240334Hey, statistics expert, mathematician here. We actually need more information to make a judgement call on the matter. What's the ratio of people who go /out/ regularly (and expose themselves to areas that have semi-dangerous animals) and people who buy lotto tickets? Answer that and we'll have a better idea of what is actually more likely...
Animals are usually a non-issue if you're wise about how you deal with your food and have proper protection, in case they get aggressive, but I wouldn't just cite that statistic and forget all protective measures.
