The trouble with that framework, I think, is that it makes it hard for us to think of the predators as having equal moral weight to humans, let alone greater. We'll tend to think of what scenario is most preferable to humans, but give little if any consideration to what scenario is most preferable to the predators.
That seems like the sort of thing that varies from person to person.
