Bingo, Jim! You mentioned National Geographic; what they show ain't pretty
but it's exactly what happens. Animals eat animals. I can see it now; a
lion running swift and strong after a sleek, lovely antelope, finally
catching her. What follows is guts and gore that rival Hollywood's worst
war scenes. Welcome to reality!
Yet every vegetarian I know (literally) is in great denial. If they were
truly educated (all adult vegetarians I know have at least a bachelors
degree), vegetarians could at least admit that animals survive by eating
other animals but another tenet or this philosophy is, apparenlty, selective
memory.
