I think the point that the writer was trying to make is that Steve knew full well what he was doing. Animals, domesticated or otherwise, are unpredictable. If you get into their sandbox you are taking a calculated risk that you may get injured or killed.

Sometimes you are the ball, sometimes you are the bat.

Sometimes you are the bug, sometimes you are the windshield.

Sometimes you are the arrow sometimes you are the bull's eye.
