The rivalry between two shoebill chicks becomes apparent when their mother leaves to fetch water. Taken from Africa. Black: As Brutal as it seems, there's a reason behind everything. Sometimes the mother animal will choose it's favorite or favorites of the Offspring, which is usually the stronger, smarter, and healthier ones that is. The weaker ones are ignored and left to starve and\or die. But there's a reason behind that, survival of the fittest. If nature didn't have that rule, animals with weaker genes would introduce those weaker genes to the wild and it can do harm to the animal kingdom. Pet or domesticated animals are a totally different thing, but even so the instinct is still there.
That older Shoebill already knew the sibling was weaker and so did the mother, animals can't allow offspring with weaker genes to carry on.

I was in Zurich zoo once with my young daughter and we walked into the shoebill enclosure. Bird had one eye closed, still as a stature as passersby went through but as soon as it saw my 2yr old daughter, it woke fully and watched her like a hawk.
Never forget these things are descended from dinosaurs.
