Not to say there isn't a better way to do this but when Smeagol bites into a live fish in LOTR, people don't shout animal cruelty. Magnify this to a much larger animal like sharks/whales/dolphins, our perception changes. Maybe it's because we can kind of feel what a shark feel and we couldn't for smaller creatures.
We do a lot of cruel things to animals that we better not see. Those people looked very proficient in carving up the carcass. So I assume a big fish like this is their normal diet.
