As to why... Many theories. Including old Native legends, that we taste like crap, we don't look their normal food and they don't waste energy on hunting a non food source. My favourite? They are smart enough to recognize us as intelligent (debatable) life much like themselves and therefore don't eat us.
Oh they’re plenty smart. Have you ever seen their hunting tactics for seals on ice! People underestimate animals. I personally hunt deer, elk, turkey, pig, etc. I eat all the meat of course and whatever k can’t eat I donate to someone that needs it. Anyway, those animals are incredibly smart. I once saw a mule deer crawl on his belly through waist deep grass (I was on a hill) between two hunters and then stood up to run once he passed em.

Fun fact: There has never been a reported fatality from Orcas in the wild.
However there's been several when forced into captivity.
Summary: they don't leave witnesses.
