By far the most dangerous predator on Earth is humans, we eat each other, anything that moves, kill for fun, build machines to do it for us, design what we eat to be easier to kill, and have you dealt with women? We're a scary bunch.

Right, because we had better stamina than predators, and then developed intelligent brains. But are apes?

Have I...met any Chimps? Uh, no, I guess they go to different bars than I do.

And fine. Sorry, I'm not a scientist, as evidenced by my question--which still hasn't come close to being answered.
