A riddle for you:
An eagle is in a desperate search for food to feed her staving eaglets. In a field below, a baby rabbit joyously nibbles on some tender sprouts. Catching sight of the bunny, the eagle launches itself from its nest, speeds towards the tiny rabbit, scoops it up in her talons and carries it to the nest as the rabbit screeches in agony. She tosses the helpless rabbit into the nest and proceeds to tear it apart piece by piece, and feed it to her young.
Question: Is this right or wrong?

Let me think: the eagle in question is going out of it's way to feed her children, and proceeds to not only procure very appropriate food (at some personal risk), but to carefully prepare the meal.

Sounds more "right" than many welfare moms.
