You can show a lot of differences, but the end result is always the same: Sentient beings dead way before their natural expiration.

So all the carnivorous predators are also evil?

I'm not even trying to be a jerk about it, but I've never been given a single good answer on this.

Carnivores have just as much right to live as their prey, as unfortunate as the cost of life is.

We, as humans, are in a rather unique position, being omnivores with many of us in the developed world having easy access to food. And those of us can make a choice to not cause the death of other sentient beings in order to have food.
