I honestly don't know, perhaps they are afraid of the animals.
We have all kinds where I live, and you will see them even in the yard.
We have an assortment of deer, wolves, wild cats, bears, and the usual skunks, snakes, etc.
I just have to keep a close eye on the grandchildren when they play outside plus my dogs go out with them. I suppose the most rewarding part of the summer can when all five grandchildren stood in a back window and watched a family of rabbits play in the yard and through out the summer watched the baby rabbits grow.

I feel humans are the "wildest" animals because we are the ones who have caused destruction on this earth.Almost all problems on earth are because of humans.

I believe it is not just for food. It is usually for money and trade. Bushmeat hunting is widespread in Africa, and other creatures (terrestrial or marine) are killed just for their bones, fur, a body part, oil, etc.
