The Tsavo lions were belived to have been two such animals, but there are countless examples out there, this is why we kill any animal that kills a human.

Dolphins - those fun-loving cetaceans - are known to regularly engage in rape in the wild. The "problem" is something other than homo sapiens; the "problem" is sentience and/or sapience. Folks who place beasts above their fellow human beings baffle me to no end.
