For this I actually like real crowdsourcing rather than just wikipedia.
https://old.reddit.com/r/BanPitBulls/ was a subreddit I really appreciate as they do global tracking and covered more than just fatalities. It proves that the behavior is way more than just “Bad american’s with shitty training”. It’s everywhere… globally. This specific breed is a problem.
Here’s December’s (yes this month…) list for instance.
I won’t disagree that bad people make bad dogs… My cousin just lost a sheep and a bunch of chickens last night to what looks like (it was caught on property cameras) husky/shepard mix. The sheriff went over this morning and found all sorts of problems that they’ve cited them for now. But pit bulls in general have a universal problem and it’s clear when we aggregate the data and even normalize per capita. While the amount of deaths per year from dogs are low, pit bulls are statistically significantly higher(usual cited number is 6x) than any other breed.
Quoted text from my cousin this morning:
The sheriff came out and charged them with 4 misdemeanors and in the process found other issues and is investigating for animal cruelty.
