See the nice peaceful elephant stomp the $#!+ out of the hippo ...
To prey on each other and ultimately die hungry as a meal for another animal once it no longer possesses the strength to prey on it's neighbors!
How 'bout that God, huh?

__________________________________________________________________ God originally created all creatures, including man to live forever as plant eaters. We are now in the age of the fall, caused by man's sin. Considering all of eternity to come, the time of the fall is a very extremely short amount of time.
Soon Jesus is coming back to rule on earth. This will be a time of great peace for all creatures. Once again many men will rebel at the end of 1,000 years. Then Christ will for the last time deal with sinful men.
After this there will be a new earth and a new heaven. It will be more wonderful than we can imagine. Things will go back to the time of the garden of Eden, only much, much better.
Even now, often animals live their lives fairly contented and die quick deaths when they no longer are strong.
God is merciful. Jesus Christ paid the price to redeem His creation back to Himself by dying on the cross and paying the horrible price of man's sin.
