Yes. I do appreciate this too. And we are also responsible for killing.
It's just a little harder when you see it for real. I love foxes and the fox (if) that took the baby swan was probably hungry and I know we also build on what was originally their home ground . I do agree with you about The nature of nature. It's a cycle. It just hurts to see it when it happens.
If on the other hand it was a dog and the RSPCA said it might well have been, then the owner of the dog is to blame for lack of control.
