was thinking it's weird how in humans sometimes ppl horrifically murder people. Do, for example, ants, have sometimes an ant that horrifically murders other ants?

cats seemingly kill birds and other wildlife for fun

(i love cats, before anyone gets upset)

Cats killing birds for fun is more a symptom of humans feeding them, but the cat still having the instinct to hunt. In nature they would probably just kill for food 99% of the time, not do it for sport or play.
