My hypothesis is that the number of incidents that involved 'pit bull type' bites and attacks on passengers, crew, and airport workers and required medical treatment is far more than the 1 that made the papers and has reached the point where they feel like there's enough documentation on incidents that they can survive legal challenges if they exclude the entire group of animals as hazards to other passengers.
