That initial line of reasoning makes sense, but then it becomes another argument.
If it's about opportunity (makes sense, catching a human does seem easier than an antelope) rather than anything intrinsic to human flesh, then why would killing them so that they don't reproduce matter? "Opportunity" does not get transmitted genetically.
- the_af 7y agoI think the actual argument is about learned behavior, not genetics. Lions who realize humans are easy prey will eat nothing else. So you must get rid of the lion somehow, and killing it is the easiest way. Otherwise the same lion will hunt humans again.
