I’m pretty sure spiders do this. Like I know some species where the mum bites off the head of the dad after she gets pregnant then she gives birth and dies and her babies hatch then either fly away in the wind or eat her dead corpse. Not all spiders do this but some do. I also know that a lot of animals including bunny rabbits will kill their own babies and eat them if food is scarce or if the babies are just being annoying and needy that day. You’ll find a lot of parricide or prolicide in the animal kingdom so technically he’s not being really really messed up but that the world is messed up enough that it happens anyways(?) but mainly the author is just straight up a psychopath cause even though I know the word to describe killing someone’s own parent or child, I would never in a million billion years think of adding it to a book. Just straight up craziness.
