The main research question of this proposal, then, is: Is it morally permissible, or perhaps even required, to redesign natural processes in order to alleviate wild animal suffering? Apart from the objections that less ambitious forms of intervention also encounter, like the alleged intractability of naturogenic wild animal suffering (Delon & Purves 2018) or our lack of the knowledge and the means to do so (Johannsen 2020), nature reengineering faces some specific challenges. All of them should be addressed if we are to have a compelling answer to the research question presented above

那么，该提案的主要研究问题是：重新设计自然过程以减轻野生动物的痛苦，在道德上允许的，甚至可能需要进行道德允许的问题？除了反对雄心勃勃的干预形式的异议之外，还遇到了据称的自然生成动物苦难的棘手性（Delon＆Purves 2018），或者我们缺乏知识和手段（Johannsen 2020），自然界还面临一些特定的挑战。如果我们要对上面提出的研究问题有令人信服的答案，则应解决所有这些
