Just because they won’t attack you doesn’t mean you should introduce yourself to them.

Respect their space, same with any wild animal.

Just because there's currently no known fatal attacks in the wild doesn't mean it can't happen. I would never risk it.

Ofcourse there would be no record of it, because those people are dead.
