What are examples of Parasitism Mutualism and Commensalisms of organisms in Yellowstone?

An example of parasitism in Yellowstone is when parasites enter through a bison from a tick or flea bite, therefore the parasite is taking advantage of the bison while the bison is harmed. An example of mutualism are birds resting on bison also eat the ticks in its coat, therefore the birds in the bison are both benefitting each other. An example of commensalism is a raven in a tree, the raven is benefitting the shelter and the insects while the tree is unharmed.
