In The Lion King, there's a great scene where Mufasa is cautioning Simba to treat all animals with respect, because they're all equal. Simba says, "But don't we eat the antelope?" And Mufasa says, "Yes, but when we die, we become the grass, and the antelope eat the grass. It's all part of the circle of life." And I always thought: Better to the lion.
