I think it would be absurd to try to tag dangerous wildlife areas. It
would just be an enormous region for rattlesnakes and mountain lions in
the US. Same for grizzlys up north or snakes in the south. We have
signs warning of rodents carrying plague around here, should we tag that
too?

Big difficulty in defining where to place cut-off for dangerous and
when an area is dangerous... Ultimately most of the world has some
dangerous wildlife. If very unlucky you could be gored by a boar
within city limits of Berlin. Bears are semi-regularly found in some
suburbs of Vancouver. Where would you draw the line?
Signs are often posted for dangerous wildlife or trail conditions. I
think the signs themselves would be more than welcome in OSM.
I don't know how this would be incorporated into a wider "area" type
structure though. I imagine the boundaries of these areas are quite
nebulous?
