If animals can’t choose their fate the way humans can, why does the natural world involve so much of their suffering?
Q. Why is the animal world full of chaos, if they don’t have free will why do they have to suffer?
We obviously don’t understand G-d and why He created each detail the way that He did, but one thing is for sure: the Creation is many things but surely not chaotic! The exact ecological cycle is so precise and synchronized that its order is clear to all when we learned it in elementary school science. Like many things in life, if one just sees the small picture of the cat chasing the mouse, it looks chaotic, but a mature person knows to step back and see the whole picture where everything is davka in perfect order!
