All animals and most plants exercise the right of self defence - even corals kill neighboring corals with chemicals they produce for defense and trees produce chemicals to fight insects.
They live as "free beings" even without much intelligence as defined by us.
Life continues in all its diversity.
So one could say that Life, Liberty and Defense are all natural rights.
Freedom of expression fit in there as well and as an extension of liberty comes the freedom of expression. As an extension of defense comes freedom from search and seizure of personal property.
I have yet to see one bird seize the nest of another or an animal take over the den of another without a fight.
I guess as people we think it is OK to take what another has without them fighting for it. They should just give their income to us because we "need" it more than they do.
In nature, you have the right to eat or be eaten.
For a 'right' to be anything other than the product of active imagination, it must be supernatural.
