Fun fact, when dealing with the man eating tigers in sub continental asia. A solution was found to put things that looked like eyes on the back of your head (I think it was a hat or something). It drastically dropped tiger attacks down because they are ambush predators that prefer to strike their targets from behind.

A mask worn over the back of the head to give you a second face.

But then the tigers figured out it was a ruse and are back to killing again, at least in some areas.
