Eagle eating antelope alive, would you do anything?

I watched two male whales “mating” a female for over an hour once. We were fishing and just checked out the commotion. This poor female was absolutely spent, trying to get away. They nearly drowned her, repeatedly raping her again and again. She had no choice, one on each side of her taking turns. Once we figured out what was happening it was sad but apparently it’s not uncommon. We didn’t like it but we let it go. We didn’t shoot anything but I thought about it for a split second. Nature can be brutal.
 
Nature is brutal. I'm not sure what I would do. But I do know that dying from being half eaten by an eagle who will probably get its fill well before I died is no comparison to the swift death a tiger or lion would invoke on its target. I get what Ben is saying but it's a poor comparison. That antelope probably lived in serious agony for days after the initial attack. So would you end the antelopes life if you stumbled onto it 2 days after the attack still living?
