I think it’s implied that the predator did kill a lot of them, otherwise they wouldn’t have the demon legend.
But predators also have a stricter moral code than humanity’s big game / trophy / regular hunters, who mostly kill defenseless creatures. They won’t kill anything unarmed, or who can’t harm. And in predator 2 they refuse to kill a captured prey (danny glover) that successfully defended himself and killed one of their own, and even give him one of their trophies out of respect.
Overall tho hunting is an activity mostly done by bored bourgeois parasites… the villian of the short story the most dangerous game is a russian tsarist aristocrat who hunts people for fun.

I loved how in that story the author takes, like, a paragraph listing all the people groups the hunter is racist against.
