A shelter to many types of animals, and food for them.
Plants and animals need different things because they have different needs. Plants need sunlight because they make their own food and animals need plants.
They all do ... but you may be thinking of plants - they don't need animals to survive but animals need plants.
oxygen
All animals need plants for survival because plants make food and oxygen. we all need oxygen to breathe and the plants I'm sure you know take the carbon dioxide in the air and make it into oxygen. and as for food some animals eat leaves and plants also make food like berries that we and animals eat too. :)

like this plants and animals need food, water, shelther to survive in the wild
Because plants don't have a need for animals, but animals need company and a mate so that they can continue and make their species last.
Plants need light to make food, we need light to see, and without plants animals wouldn't eat, without animals and plants we would die.
Plants are at the bottom of the food chain. Plants can take nutrients from the soil and sunlight to make food for animals. Plants also make oxygen for animals including us to use, and we make carbon dioxide for the plants to use to make more oxygen. Plants can rely on animals to. Birds eat berries with seeds and poop them out in different places to help the plants reproduce.
Many animals need to eat plants to live. Other animals eat animals that eat plants. So the food that plants make is the source of life for all animal life.
Plants are producers they trap sunlight and make it into sugars. Only plants can do this and therefore animals need to eat plants as food to get the energy that plants have made to live.
