Do hardcore vegans think nature is cruel?

I'm not talking about the sensible vegans who respect a carnivore's natural diet. I am talking about the hardcore peta vegans who think killing any animal for any reason is cruel.

Would it make them feel better if they saw a snake trying to swallow a tree? Or a lion munching on a bed of flowers?

I know some vegans make their pets go vegan too, despite the fact that some animals are obligatory animals, like ferrets. I have done some research on vegan pet foods and don't really agree with it. And I know some vegans skip having pets all together.

So, I was just wondering what they think about animals in their natural habitat. Are other animals "cruel" because they eat other animals?

What are your opinions? Do they think nature is cruel? Do they think that adopting animals, taking care of them, and loving them is cruel? Where does the line of animal cruelty stop?

I agree.

Nature is cruel. No one is ever going to stop it. Just like no one can stop a hurricane or tornado.

A think animal cruelty should stop right at eating meat. Meat = food.
