Curious how they did the math (but it wouldn’t mean anything to me, I am terribly math challenged). But it’s an interesting list. One thing about Pit Bulls is I don’t know how they quantify what is a pit bull. Do they include Am Staffs, American Pit Bull, Bull Terrier and all of the other bully breeds? Also, wolf hybrids (which I am opposed to, and I know I will take some flack for saying that) but not sure how they decide if the animal is honestly a hybrid or simply wolfy looking but maybe they can tell with DNA now so they may be sure before they label it.
And husky, does that include Siberians, Malmutes and other norther breeds?
Just wondering.
I don’t know anything about Presas other than the little I’ve read and they don’t appeal to me. Of those breeds I wouldn’t have a problem owning one of the bully breeds if I knew where it came from and ditto a Rottie.

I did the math. I just divided the attacks by the fraction of the population to get a risk factor for individuals of the breed. Rottweilers came out the winner, but PBs are seriously dangerous too. Stick with collies and retrievers if you don't want to get bitten.
