Eating wild meat is a gamble. Pretty sure that's why we mostly stick to eating herbivores. That's also why wild caught fish must be frozen, to kill any parasites they may have.
Things get cooked for a variety of reasons. Avoiding sickness is one, but I think most of us agree that cooked food tastes better. Even if I wouldn't get sick from eating raw food is still cook it.
I mean, I love a good medium rare steak, but if I caught something in the wild, that bitch is getting near burned...
It's mostly about sanitation. Animals aren't magically fine when they eat other animals. No one notices when a bear dies of a parasite unless it's someone's pet.
Cooked food is also easier to digest and get energy out of.
