Im pretty sure its because they need to conserve all of their energy to hunt, or maybe thats just lions. But lions for sure cant afford to waste any extra energy otherwise theyll die. Its like the opposite of peak evolution imo lmao dude cant go 6 hours awake without losing too much energy to hunt again

Carnivores in general chose a pretty risky evolution path as full time assassins that can only eat their target. Omnivores is the way, just eat anything with any caloric value
