Survival of the Fittest

Watched a nature program about Africa last night Bout the animals that roam free, what a glorious sight Survival of the fittest Can make us grimace As the prey succumbs in a fight for their life

Love those wildlife programmes, saw a giraffe boot a lion once and sent him sprawling and got away, I was cheering him on. Tom

Indeed. They must kill to survive. But, why oh why, do I always root for the underdog? I can't figure that out. Why can't I just observe and realize the ways of nature are absolutely necessary to everything's survival!
