I sometimes root for the prey because sometimes, the animal supposed to be prey exhibits great bravery while the predators are cowardly. But it is best when a predator vs lower predators.
Nietzsche said that the primary instinct of animals is to acquire and exert strength on other animals, which is why strength is the primary “virtue” of the jungle. How can this be when we know the primary mission of animals in general is self preservation and reproduction, not strength?

I'm with you on that but you've essentially boiled it down to "The Will" (Schopenhauer) vs "The Will to Power" , applied to animals
More accurately, selfishness is the rule of the jungle. But that's a key quality of the Will
