That's how it really is. It's nasty, brutish, and short.
I think it was National Geographic magazine, or one of those magazines I respect, but they had an animal's life expectancy in the wild. They had the maximum years an animal CAN live, then they had the average years an animal lives in the wild. It was crazy to see just how low the average years were.
I'll simplify - herbivores are food for carnivores, and the carnivores who are too stupid or too weak to compete with other carnivores die.
I'm glad for civilization to be honest. I love having running water. Love it. I've spent months in 3rd World countries without it and let me just tell you, there's NOTHING like having a toilet to crap in. People have no idea how nice that luxury is, and it really is a luxury. There's also NOTHING like a warm bath. I love warm baths. That's another luxury.
There's also nothing like being parasite free. Man, having parasites really sucks. I know from experience. Imagine having the worst stomach flu you can possibly imagine. Now, imagine that lasted a month. On top of that, you still have to go to school or work or do whatever you have to do. Parasites is just something they live with.
EDIT: grammar mistakes.
