This is an appeal to nature fallacy. Rape, homicide, and infanticide happen in nature, is that a justification for us to do it?

> Rape, homicide, and infanticide happen in nature

those can only happen within the same species

Cuckoos? Don't they infanticide other birds?

[rascul]

There are videos on YouTube of monkeys forcefully doing things to other animals and people which might be considered rape.

People do it regardless. It's not a justification, but it's also not a preventative measure to say "this is bad".

But in the grand scheme of things, I don't think honoring prey is even in the top 100 issues in terms of impacts humans have on marine ecosystems. Sorry if I sound belittling, but it does sound like this whole thing is more of a symbolic gesure than a means to really resolve the issues we have caused. That's why I don't take it quite as seriously.
