I can see the hungry lion making a greater profit out of it all, until
the end, when he himself will be finished...

As a star gaze becomes hard to get, they sell a piece of the sky in
your vacation package to Tahiti, where still the sky is clean. As
clean water become more scarce, they sell you water from Fiji. The
problem is when they run out of remote places and the lions start
fighting each other over scarce resources. That's when the predators
eat each other...

"The changing face of the African plains has led to a new and bloody
conflict among its animals, as captured in this documentary. National
Geographic: Predators At War examines conditions in the Mala Mala game
preserve in South Africa. Due to a long standing drought, Mala Mala's
plant life is slowly dying out, leaving the predatory animals of the
region -- among them... More lions, leopards, hyenas and cheetahs --
to prey upon one another in a grim bid for survival."
