Like the extinct Falkland wolf: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Falkland_Islands_wolf https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Falkland_Islands_wolf "There were no forests for the animal to hide in, and it had no fear of humans;[citation needed] it was possible to lure the animal with a chunk of meat held in one hand, and kill it with a knife held in the other"
