Answer: Most wild animals do not know if humans are a threat or not and in the wild, everything is a threat unless proven otherwise. Not to mention, many humans do pose a threat to wild animals.

Is cat another name for puma?

Sort of. A puma is a type of cat, different from but fairly closely related to the common house cat. Pumas and house cats are both felines, though they're members of different genera (house cats are genus Felis, pumas are genus Puma). The term "Puma" is a little vague, because it's used to refer to several different species, mostly in genus Puma, such as cougars and jaguarundi (not jaguars, which are in genus Panthera)."Cat" is also used to refer to any felid, including the felines (house cats and small wild cats) and the "great cats" or panthers (jaguars, lions, tigers, etc.).

Which do people like cats or dogs?

Some people like cats and some people like dogs. I personally prefer dogs because they are more interesting and fun to play with while cats, usually sleep and more shy. Some people also thinks dogs are more loyal, cats usually give people a different impression which is not a good impression because the first time you see them they are shy. My cousin's cat is very fun, he always plays with me and is weirdly not shy. It is very rare that cats aren't shy.
