I wouldn't say that nature is cruel, but amoral and chaotic, with a focus on trying all the venues for survival, whith some for moral beings like us, seemingly cruel.

When I did experimentation, I often focused on minimizing harm. I also try doing as much good as I am doing "bad". That helps me deal with this.
