I wouldn't put it that way. If you look at animals, they might often fight over food, mates, territory or rank, but these fights rarely end fatally when all participants are of the same species.


BLM stallions reportedly kill foals in the herd. Grizzly boars are renown for killing and eating cubs if Momma can not protect them.

I would bet other examples abound beyond my personal knowledge base.

Perhaps that means Mother Nature actually meant for us to retroactively abort problematic teenagers.

People who choose to brew up their own storms bitch loudest about the rain.
