Most predators choose prey based on the size of the prey, the needs of the predator (how many mouths there are to feed, how long it's been since the predator(s) ate, etc), how strong or weak the prey appears to be, and other such factors. Many predators will target the young and weak specifically because they require less energy to chase, catch and kill.
