Children of the Moon presumably preyed on vampires.

It makes sense, vampires a REALLY hard to kill. They have to have something to keep their population down, true werewolves could have been vampires natural predators. This would also explain why the Volturi were able to wipe them out so easily...predators always have fewer numbers than prey. Otherwise they would overhunt the prey population and starve to death. It's the reason why you see more zebra and wildebeest on the African plain than lions and hyenas. Presumably the werewolf tried to eat Caius and he escaped (this happens in nature too, predators don't ALWAYS pull off a successful hunt). When the Volturi were formed, the Children of the Moon were massively outnumbered, possibly largely disorganized and the Volturi had Jane and Alec.
