@CDF47:
The Bible does not mention if animal death occurred.
So, the best you can claim is that you don't know.
They had free will and they disobeyed. That puts the problem on them.
That they had free will is irrelevant. God did not give them prior knowledge of good and evil, thus making him criminally negligent.
Not impossible.
“Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent.
Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent.
Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil?
Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God?” (Epicurus)
They occur with God involved. He wrote the laws of the universe. He can defy them.
You are appealing to a logical fallacy known as Argument from Assertion. You cannot claim God was involved until you first prove that God exists.
