In answer to your question... Yes......

Answer 2

We have the forward facing eyes of a hunter, however we have a tragically poor sense of smell. We have the teeth and digestive system to cope with any diet and not specialised toward or away from meat. We have the instincts of a predator within us (the urge to chase when someone runs is a good example). Although there are still people around the world who actively hunt, I'd say the vast majority of us are unspecialised opportunistic scavengers.

Answer 3

No. The definition of a predator is an organism that hunts, kills, and eats another animal. Humans buy groceries at the store and do not hunt, kill, and then eat animals. Unless you have a hunting license in which case they are predators.
