Its a giant gladiator ring with animals killing each other every minute. From our perch at the top of the food chain we can call nature peaceful. I'm not sure a rabbit would feel the same way.

Part of the calm relaxing feeling many of us get being out in nature may be the comfort of knowing that we completely dominate the entire environment.

Contrast with the often hyper competitive social/city environment.
