If God created animals and that their function really is to be eaten by us, I believe they should behave accordingly and not try to get away when we want to eat them.

For a deer to run away from a starving hunter is like the deer defying God's intention after all. Is it a sin for a deer to run?
i'm just saying it's a predator-prey instinct - self-preservation and such

if a deer was sapient and understood God, it would sacrifice itself to the hunter willingly

but I digress - I'm just trolling here

just following the Virgin's footsteps
