Only one will survive
When two species occupy the exact same niche, competition between them increases as they vie for the same resources. This can lead to one species outcompeting the other, one species evolving to use different resources, or both species coexisting by partitioning resources or developing specialized niches within the broader niche.
In an ecosystem, a niche is a very specific role that a species can play in that system. When two species attempt to fulfill this exact same role, their prey becomes much more scarce, and one will eventually force the other out.
It's natural niche.
Massive competition occurs when 2 organisms have the sane niche. The organisms are 2 species.
If 2 mouse species tried to occupy the same niche they would fight. The mice fight to right to occupy the niche. The winner of the fight gets the niche.

This idea was first formulated by G. Evelyn Hutchinson, an ecologist who proposed the concept of ecological niche in the 1950s. The competitive exclusion principle, based on this concept, states that two species cannot coexist if they occupy the exact same niche in an ecosystem.
True
According to the competitive exclusion principle, two species cannot continue to occupy the same ecological niche in a community because one will outcompete the other leading to the elimination of the less adapted species.
When two organisms attempt to occupy the same niche, they may compete for resources such as food, water, or shelter. This competition can lead to one species outcompeting the other, leading to a decrease in population size or local extinction. In some cases, the two species may undergo niche differentiation to reduce competition and coexist.
