"Sexual cannibalism is present largely in spiders and other invertebrates, including gastropods.[3] This refers to the killing and consumption of conspecific sexual partners during courtship, and during or after copulation. Normally, it is the female which consumes the conspecific male organism, though there have been some reported cases of the male consuming the adult female, however, this has only been recorded under laboratory conditions.[3][21][22] Sexual cannibalism has been recorded in the female redback spider, black widow spider, praying mantis, and scorpion, among others."
As you can see, insects also engage in cannibalism, even after sexual intercourse.
"Filial cannibalism is particularly common in teleost fishes, appearing in at least seventeen different families of teleosts.[34] Within this diverse group of fish, there have been many, variable explanations of the possible adaptive value of filial cannibalism. One of these is the energy-based hypothesis, which suggests that fish eat their offspring when they are low on energy as an investment in future reproductive success."
Fish seem to do it as well, not just insects. Some pigs also consume their offspring in some cases, which is one of the causes of piglet deaths.
"Infanticide is the killing of a non-adult animal by an adult of the same species. Infanticide is often, but not always, accompanied by cannibalism. It is often displayed in lions; a male lion encroaching on the territory of a rival pride will often kill any existing cubs fathered by other males; this brings the lionesses into heat more quickly, enabling the invading lion to sire his own young. This is an example of cannibalistic behaviour in a genetic context."
Lions do it as well as some species of cats.
You probably already heard about the Aztec and Incan empires and their cannibalistic rituals for their Sun God.
There are still tribes to this day that engage in cannibalism such as a tribe in South America:
Of course, Africa has to be mentioned:
Southeast Asia as well:
They all seem to be enjoying themselves, not very different from eating a good steak or pork tbh.
Despite social taboos that have chained us from being free humans as a whole that can engage in incest(For another thread) and cannibalism, people still do those things because it's natural and deep down we know it feels right. The government cannot stop what's natural and right.
