Animals gone wild
Q: Why do animals attack people?
A: Because of the Fall there is a risk because corruption has entered the whole of creation. Humans were originally having proper dominion over all the earth (incl the creatures here), but then the animals were caused to fear man by God to help protect them to a degree; not be trusting.
However nature is wild and lives as they were designed to as well. Animals hunt & eat other animals.
So with all that, some are just following fishing boats for fish, others will be aggressive and attack. Some go crazy, like killer whales, or occassional dolphins, others are angry at poachers and see all humans as threats. The world is unpredictable because of the fall. Fortunately it will soon have a time of rest and peace for a time;
Isaiah describes a vision of peace and harmony in the animal kingdom in the future.
"The wolf will live with the lamb, the leopard will lie down with the goat, the calf and the lion and the yearling together; and a little child will lead them."
Isaiah 11:6
