摘　　要：人们饲养动物的数量越来越多,随之而来的是,各种动物致害案件也越来越多。司法实践中出现了一系列虽由动物引起但危害行为与动物本身危险性无关的非典型动物致害案件,比如“藏獒坠楼案”“小猪绊人案”等。此类非典型致害案件能否适用动物致害责任引起了学界和实务界的广泛关注和争议。通过分析论证动物致害案件为何适用无过错责任原则,可以得出这样的结论:动物危险性是动物致害案件适用无过错归责原则的正当性依据,也是动物致害案件的本质特征。亦即,具体案件中能否适用动物致害责任取决于该案危害行为是否具有动物危险性。可在考察国内外现有立法、司法状况和相关学说的基础上,对动物危险性进行定性、定量分析,以此明确动物致害责任的适用范围。The number of people raising animals is more and more,followed by a variety of animal damage cases are also increasing.In judicial practice,there have been a series of atypical animal harm cases caused by animals,but the harm behavior has nothing to do with the danger of the animals themselves,such as“Tibetan mastiff fall case”“pig stumbling case”and so on.Whether such atypical injury cases can be applied to animal injury liability has aroused widespread controversy in the academic and practical circles.Firstly,by analyzing why the principle of no-fault liability is applied to animal injury cases,this paper demonstrates that animal danger is the legitimate basis for the application of the principle of no-fault liability in animal injury cases,and it is also the essential characteristic of animal injury cases.That is,whether the liability for animal damage can be applied in a specific case depends on whether the harmful behavior of the case has animal danger.Then,on the basis of investigating the current situation of legislation,judicature and doctrine at home and abroad,this paper makes a qualitative and quantitative analysis of animal danger,so as to clarify the scope of application of animal damage liability.
