There are relatively peaceful animals, one would suppose, but every living thing including minnows, which are preyed on by larger fish needs to eat--and not every living thing is content to live on grass. Which brings to mind the old joke about the bull. A guy dies and get reincarnated. He’s telling a friend about his great new life. He get up he eats he shits, he fucks. What he omits mentioning, significantly, is consciousness. The friend is incredulous and jealous until his old buddy informs him he’s come back as a bull in Minnesota. Which would you rather be, a nervous Manhattan health freak or contented stud? Mastication is also a desire peculiar to mammalian species. In any case, the bull is going to end up on top in all categories. It's not something that requires much thought.
