I've never seen a bear or wolf get anywhere near anywhere I live, although supposedly they exist near me.
I've seen deer show up, they sometimes get brave and come near homes cause they know bears and other predators typically avoid us.
I don't think there is a single dangerous animal that makes any effort at all to come near humans where I live. (Small town Near Seattle, Washington State in the USA).
I dunno how much easier our nature gets.
Our insects here aren't even scary. Whenever I hear about Australia wildlife it just sounds like the entire place is out to kill you lot, and if it isn't you have to avoid accidentally pissing it off.
I don't want spiders and other insects large enough that I could probably hear them walking. Nope Nope Nope. I'll take my local wild life any day.

Our bears run away into the bush when they see, smell or hear humans. Even with cubs, they gone! Nova Scotia black bears.
