I don't think what I said was intellectually disingenuous. I think I act according to my nature and the tiger acts according to it's nature and there is no hierarchy of animals.
I guess my statement regarding moral agency is flawed since I guess our conceptions of morality can only apply to our own species and maybe even our own society.
I definitely don't think I know better than the tiger tho. The tiger is not a child it is a being different from human and not lesser.
The tiger is not immoral to take life and neither are humans in certain circumstances in my opinion.
I certainly don't want to kill animals and do my best to limit suffering.
