A "predator" is an animal which feeds on other animals. It doesn't mean it's a bad animal. It's just the way they are. After all, don't a lot of people feed on other animals?
The animals which are eaten are called "prey". Usually these kinds of animals feed on plant life, but sometimes small predators become prey when they are eaten by bigger predators.
