That scale is pretty interesting, trying to make 295 seem like it's more than 500.

Blue bars are attacks, red are deaths. I'd say 3000 is more than 500, yes

Alright, why does 113 look like it's half of 500?

Because they had to in order to get Rottweilers and pit bulls to show up on the graph correctly.

By that logic, why does 535 look like more than 3/4s of 3397? Because it's not the easiest to show the accurate scale of 3397 versus 535 on an infographic and not have to figure out how to display a 12000x1500 pixel image in such a way you can still read it. It's not a conspiracy, just lame formatting. Chill.
