"Preys on" ≠ "attracted to", full stop.

    Why not? Stories where that's both true can be viscerally terrifying.

    I was referring to the original subject, tbf. Not in general. 🤷🏼‍♂️

    Preying on young animals is normal: they taste better and are more tender. That’s why almost every pig and cow and chicken you’ve ever eaten is under two years old.

    Hell, predators eat young animals all the time. They’re slower and dumber.

    But converting one to be your companion is creepy as hell.

    Sounds like parasite apologia. I'm certain the animals you cited'd be fully against their slaughter, or those like them. This isn't a "nature does it" discussion here —especially since the creature in question is literally not of the natural world, ergo "supernatural". 🫤

    I’ve met the pigs I’ve eaten.

    Never wanted to fuck ‘em.
