was thinking it’s weird how in humans sometimes ppl horrifically murder people. Do, for example, ants, have sometimes an ant that horrifically murders other ants?

Domestic tomcats frequently kill every kitten they sire. The theory that I hold is that the tomcats murder kittens to both prevent competition and to prepare the queen (the female cat - and yes, they are referred to as queens) for mating sooner.
Something similar happens to lions, afaik, males that kill another male will proceed to kill the infants
