Sorry I was not being clear.
As for your answer: I agree that we have less compassion with potentially dangerous animals.
Fear determines how much we are able to love. Some can only love their dog, some love EVERY creature around. Fun fact: I once left two ticks in my skin because I did not see a way of removing them without harm. Would I always do that? No. Still it was good for me to face this particular fear...
