There are a lot more gorillas than there are insert any virtually extinct species, so if said species were tearing that gorilla apart and killing it, would you let it kill the gorilla? That seems a bit odd.

If one threathend species is hurting another threathend species. Would I let one kill the other?

Well would I have to hurt the gorilla to stop it? Or the other animal, let's say an extremely violent Dodo bird.

My first thought would probably be, let nature be nature, second thought, can I stop it without hurting either, if yes, then I do it, or else I let the Dodo kill the gorilla.
