which animals eat their own species, when found dead, offered by an human,?

Question

in situations of extreme stress etc??

Answer 1

Almost all the species who eat carrion (including humans) eat their own species, as all they see is the rotting flesh and need for energy. When a free meal is offered, why go and hunt. Moreover, it is the nature's self cleansing mechanism to dispose the dead.
