Cruel why? For example I recently did a bunch of research on feeding raccoons and the consensus has actually changed, many experts instead offer advice on how to feed them rather than flat out saying don't feed them
Urban wildlife has adapted to coexist with humans after all
I don't think feeding wild animals from your hand is a good idea though, that's what causes animals to resort to begging rather than surviving on their own
