See..... ever since the first Mnt-Ops fueled, Kuiu cavedude first dirtnapped an animal with a Bloodrunner (tm) tipped spear, humans have been reliant on technology to subjugate nature.
Unfortunately for us, that means that we've evolved into the slowest, weakest most prey-like species on the planet.
Literally EVERYTHING is harder than we are now.
Shit..... a few thousand years ago we used to Chase down mammoths & basically dick-punch & headbutt them to death, then eat them.
Now? Your dachshund will literally jack you up just for practice. House cat? Forget it. You're basically an instinctively dead food delivery device. Pet dog? No chance.
Once you start talking about non-domesticated animals, they're isn't one that couldn't, if offered the chance, recycle you into food or habitat in a heartbeat.
