People are getting upset because birds of prey are killing other birds.
That is nature, red in tooth and claw.
Even many of the smaller birds are, in their way, hunters. They eat insects - but nobody loves bugs.
We admire the athletic cheetah and weep for the gazelle it takes. We love bunnies but hate rats.
Even our beloved pet dogs and cats would revert to their carnivorous ways if given the chance.
