No, that's a myth, though it is one of the more likely to attack
people when it gets too ill to take other prey. The ones that did
(past) and do (present) are African leopards and Nile crocodiles /
Sal****er alligators. The former naturally prey on baboons, and
humans are similar, but they stopped doing that as soon as humans
became a threat (they are very intelligent). The latter see
EVERYTHING as prey!
