They are not dumb. Most probably more clever than dogs. But yes, the only reason why they don't devour people is the fact that they are herbivores.

Im going to ruin your day and that last statement, are you sure about the herbivore? just give them a baby chick and get back to me

All herbivores will eat some small creature if given a chance. Herbivores aren't vegans.
