Is there any indication that lions, tigers, bears, etc. ate other animals before Adam & Eve fell into sin and brought corruption to the world?
Out of the ground the LORD God caused to grow every tree that is pleasing to the sight and good for food; the tree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. - Genesis 2:9

I believe that all animals were herbivors in the Garden of Eden.
And when earth is returned to it's paradisical glory, all will be again...
But for now, I'd like my steak medium rare please.

No, death did not exist until after the fall. And one has to die before one can be eaten. Also, in the millennial kingdom, it states the wolf will be tame and the lion will lay down by the lamb. Things are restored to a state of not being tainted by sin.

If you are a vegan or simply a vegetarian, and looking for biblical insight for your anomoly, I don't think you will find it there. The truth can be found by looking into a mirror. Yep... look at your teeth, humans are actually not carnivores... we are Omnivores. We have teeth for both cutting and grinding. Enjoy. Merry Christmas

All the vegetation of the earth served as food for all living creatures on earth. Genesis 1:29,30

nope upon the "fall" god changed the anatomy and physiology of all the meat eaters. sounds reasonable, right?
And once in an illustrated bible I saw a drawing of Adam with a lion so there you go. The word of god is infallible

When ever there is something absolutely absurd in there you like to take that as proof of how powerful the sky daddy is, don't you?

Good question.
No, they were herbavores. It wasn't until the fall that anything died.

No. Isn't that odd?
