Animals know right from wrong. They know when they are encroaching on your space and taking YOUR food. Whether it is a dog begging for a handout or a bird trying to steal a bit of lunch off your plate.

And animals seek revenge. Attack the young of one species and expect the pack to possibly come after you even once the young animal is safe.

That’s questionable. The animal fears getting harmed by you, know doubt, but that is a far cry from “knowing right from wrong.”

I would be tentative, too, if I had to take meat from a bear and her cubs in order to feed my family ... doesn’t mean I would think it “wrong” to take the meat.
