Food for thought:

Back in the day, before civilizations were established, the world was a world of Survival of the Fittest. There was no law denying the ability to kill each other. As long as creatures back then had the ability to, they could strike down another living being and devour them.

Some say humans were one of the only creatures to develop empathy, and attribute our aversion to killing to that, claiming that we understand the feelings if others and use that as justification to put down those that do kill. And yet mankind is free to use their advanced knowledge to hunt others and punishes wrongdoers with a premature end.

There are humans that oppose these actions, but not enough for that not to be the norm.

Does humanity feel morally superior because they don't personally kill their prey? Or because they know better than to devour their personal man? There are plenty of species that have gone by through eating their own species.
