The lion is kind enough to kill and eat them, one at a time.
We come, cement over their habitat and dump sticky toxins everywhere. Also we dam up rivers and cause local droughts.
And when a particular predator decides to take care of business and hunt some naked apes, we send out a special ape with a shiny pith helmet, a penchant for tea time and large caliber rifles to manage the feral wildlife.
Some of them are smart enough to know we're bad news. Or good news for the carrion eaters.
