The Lion, The Shark and The Eagle Part 2

In the part one of these series we looked at the hunting abilities of the 3 alpha predators of the various animal kingdom. In this concluding part, we will be looking at its connotation to the interactions that goes on in the human society.

We have explored the hunting behavior of 3 alpha predators of the various animal kingdom; lion, shark and eagle.

Now what is there connotation to our society; past, present and future?

Psychologist has shown that a bully is a bully because there is a victim that is ready to be a victim. Talk of the Law of Duality. The bully can be considered as a predator while the victim is the prey. We may see the bully as committing a social crime/injustice while in the actual sense; the bully is providing a need that the victim desires, both consciously and unconsciously – the need to evolve, to grow and to be strong. The victim is also satisfying the need of the bully to evolve, to grow and to be strong. In the animal kingdom, when a prey challenges a predator, the predator will succumb and will let the prey to be.

In our wider society, we have some big corporations, institutions, groups and individuals that may be termed as predators. It seems that they are bullying and victimizing people, that they don’t have respect for human dignity. We see these organizations and individuals as the epitome of evil. Evil have been the badge people have ascribed to these big corporations, institutions, groups and individuals.

Yes, you may say that they are evil. I rather say that they are predators;

Ø  They are at the top of the pyramid making them to be very few,

Ø  They have specials skills and abilities which makes them to be efficient hunters,

Ø  Their victims/prey is the weak in character, the weak-willed and the ignorant.

These set of people, i.e. the weak in character, the weak-willed and the ignorant are seen at the base of the pyramid. They are more numerous.

The same law of pyramid that occurs in the animal kingdom is the same law that operates in the human society. The only difference is that we have the ability to choose, either to be a predator or a prey.

It is worthy of note that the lion, shark and eagle aids in the preservation and fitness of a specie by removing the weaklings and the unfit in the specie thereby affecting the perpetuation of a gene pool that aids the species for survival.

We can either be predators, preys, scavengers or primary producers. It is a choice we make, both consciously and unconsciously. It is our choice to be in any part of the pyramid for a reason best known to us. Our position in the pyramid is dynamic and fluid in nature but for any interaction that goes on between two entities in the human society, you are a predator, a prey, a scavenger or a primary producer.
