I know tigers and polar bears will eat people, but what else? I'm not really talking about bite and release (grizzlies, many sharks, etc.), but animals that actually hunt and eat people.
Do wolves ever do that? Hyenas?

But the OP's question was about being both killed and eaten. Just making sure we stay on track with what the OP wanted to know.

bubbazanetti Perhaps it was a result of anxiety.  857 posts Likes: 1 Joined Jan 2005 More info | Sep 03, 2009 14:35 | #14 MikeFairbanks wrote in post #8572492 Do wolves ever do that? Hyenas? I stayed on a farm in Botswana and asked the owner about Hyenas & he said if you are walking alone ...one will follow you to see if you are injured but a pack will kill/eat a human, it happens over there. He warned me about walking around photographing and told me how to move tactically if i come across a lion but he said the most dangerous was the Cape Buffalo (even though they dont eat humans). He said a buffalo will kill you because you are there.
