If humans weren't a part of nature, you could plausibly suggest that this is "unnatural", which is what environmentalists say. Since they are... there's nothing unnatural about a super-predator being a super-predator. We're already all playing by the same rules.
Are you seriously suggesting that any behavior we can witness in *some* species is automatically acceptable behavior for a human being?
Honestly, there's such a massive gap between the very idea that "natural" or "unnatural" are important moral categories and my own perspective on morality that we're probably not going to come close to seeing eye-to-eye on this one
Intra-species, no. Obviously not. But then again, different species are already different enough on this. In terms of nature as a whole? Inter-species? Not if you define the object towards which the moral obligation is directed as "nature".
You can define the object of moral obligation as "this specific animal", or even "this specific species", and, depending on the circumstances, that works. "Nature" as a whole? No, that doesn't work.
@LightningShade0 your phrasing was not crappy; pretty clear and straightforward argument. Mason is the one that doesn't seem to get it. Case in point: shutting down your argument - not with a counter-argument - but with a "are you seriously suggesting that...". Not a good look.
