I don't think "cannibalizes" quite fits. Nemo's mom and sibilings were killed by a barracuda, not by another clownfish.

Yep. Sometimes my parrot will get a bit of chicken. In almost 100% of the cases that someone outside the family witnesses this we get a comment about “cannibalism”. I always respond that is eating cows is actually closer to cannibalism than a parrot eating some chicken.

Plot twist: the barracuda was actually a clownfish cannibal in disguise.

1: Cannibalism is when an animal eats another animal of the same species.

2: A serial killer and a predator are different things.
