I'm curious about the broader concept of species intentionally killing other species for reasons other than food.

Intraguild killing (such as lions killing leopards or cheetahs) has been described in multiple species.

Perhaps interesting; https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34816428/ (Still need to read it)

Territorial animals will kill to protect their turf. A successful species could conceivably kill off a less successful one by conquering all its territory.

Cats kill things for I guess what you'd call fun, although it is food related as they hone their skills for when they may need them.
