One person from Quora has asked the following question:
Since humans are slower and weaker than some predators, why has no animal evolved to prey on humans?

David Hambling knows the answer!

"An animal did evolve as a specialist predator on humans, as remains in caves in Africa have shown. Its names is Dinofelis, and its signature is a pair of puncture holes left in the skull. It has survived in folklore and even in our most basic instincts: every child knows that there is a monster under the bed, and the only way to stay safe is to keep very, very quiet.

When mountain lions and other big cats attack a human, the victim often survives because they cannot bite through the skull. Such injuries are likely to be fatal, but modern cats do not have the best dentition to inflict them; Dinofelis had short, dagger-like teeth that will go through your skull with one good bite.

In 'Songlines', Bruce Chatwin suggests that Dinofelis was a major motivation for early humans to invent spears and other weapons, and that our ultimate victory over the Dinofelis and driving it into extinction was a driving force in our evolution. This is speculative, but our apparently universal fear of silent, night-roaming monsters may be an ancestral memory of the man-eater faced by our cave-dwelling ancestors."
