  Nice question! I would let the animal eat the plant. The animal is acting naturally. If we were to stop the animal we would be interfering with nature. I’d try to get a cutting or seeds of the plant first though!

  I don’t know! I don’t think I would be able to do anthing because animals scare me a bit..they are so unpredictable!

  I can see the logic behind this question but i don’t think this would ever happen. I guess if i was in that situation i would try and protect the plant

  I wish I could say “let nature take its course” but I’d stop the animal. The animal will survive not eating the plant and it would save the plant!
