What evidence in the data indicates that didinium could be a predator of the paramecium?

A decrease in paramecium population coinciding with an increase in didinium population would suggest predation.

Additionally, if the presence of didinium leads to a decrease in paramecium activity or alters their behavior in a defensive manner, this could indicate predation.
