People are afraid because nothing is clear in black and white - there are the words 'criminal conviction' and 'can snap any time' and 'eradication' banded about. The general public is not smaaaaaaaaarter then the average bear. Enough hysterical propaganda and people just panic. And thats all this has come down to ... propaganda.

According to someone who did research on deaths caused by dog bite, since 1979 in over 33 deaths only one could be attributed to a pit bull cross....Ayen Chol was a cross bred. Will find n post...

How many dog attacks are there?

The full extent of dog bite injury in Australia is difficult to measure as there are no reporting requirements.

There are data available on deaths. Hospital-treated dog bite injury is available through emergency department presentation data and hospital admissions data. But comprehensive data on medical practitioner treated injury and non-medically treated injury are not available.

Until the recent tragic death of Ayen Chol, no dog bite related deaths in Victoria have been attributed to a dog identified as a pit bull or pit bull cross.

My ongoing research has found that since 1979, there have been over 33 dog bite related deaths in Australia, 11 of these in Victoria. Only one other dog involved in a death in Australia has previously been described as a pit bull cross dog.
