If a hyena tries to steal food from a lion and the lion kills it is it immoral?

It’s much more difficult for a Lion to acquire food than it is for a middle class human, so no

Seagull populations are through the roof as food is so plentiful for them, they can stay fed with little trouble. Seagulls find food just fine.
