A predator (lion, tiger, cheetah...) is the animal that goes hunting for the prey (gazelle, deer, zebra...). When the prey is killed, the scavenger (hyena, vulture...) comes in to the scene and tries to steel the meal from the predator. In conclusion , the scavenger prefers to steal a freshly killed meal, than go hunting for his own. If he failed to steel the meal, he waits for the predator to eat, and comes in and eat the remains after the predator has left.
A predator feeds on other LIVING things, while the scavenger eats animals that are already dead.
The predator is the organism that feeds on the prey whereas the prey is the organism that is fed on by the predator. like the predator of a fish
for example is the bear. The prey for the bear is the fish... so the predator is the enemy of an other animal and the prey is an animals dinner :)
The difference between a predator and a parasite is that for a predator killing the prey is necessary for consuming it, but for parasites it is not even desirable because a parasite lives on or in its host.
prey is dN1/dt =r1N1
predator is dN2/dt= r2N2
a. Assume (for now) that predation is setting K1, so that in the absence of predation, the prey population grows geometrically
b. Assume (for now) that the predator population is totally dependent upon the prey population for its existence, so that in the absence of predation, the predator population declines geometrically 4. Put the predator and prey together
prey is dN1/dt =r1N1 - B1N1 N2predator is dN2/dt= r2N2 +B2N1 N2
a. B1 and B2 are predation coefficients
Predators are the hunters and eaters, prey are those who get hunted and eaten.
There similar because they still eat there own prey there mammal they eat meat which predators do.
The former is a filter-feeder, while the latter is an active predator, but collectively, they are grouped as predators, because they consume live prey. However, a scavenger is an animal that eats dead animals. ... Anyway, the carrion a scavenger eats must be killed by another animal or other causes for it to be scavenging.

predator hunts and eats prey.
a predator eats a prey.
(1) In a well-mixed population, the predator quickly finds prey, the prey disappear, and the predator soon follows. (2) By increasing the space between population subunits, the interaction between the predator and prey is prolonged. (3) By slowing the movement of the predator, the interaction between the predator and prey is prolonged. (4) By adding habitat patches that don't support prey, the interaction between the predator and prey is prolonged. (5) By adding barriers to predator dispersal, the interaction between predator and prey is prolonged.
There always has to be more prey than predator. If there is less prey, it will get eaten by the predator and then the predator will starve. If there are not enough predators, the prey may overpopulize.
A predator is the one that is hunting and the prey is the one being hunted.
One gets eaten and the eats other. animals can be both prey and predator.
The cat is the predator and the mouse is the prey.
the predator doesn't like the prey. So basically the predator and prey are enemies. The predator often tries to catch and eat the prey. The prey is the predator's breakfast, lunch ,or dinner prey tries to run to safety, but sometimes their luck runs out. The predator usually catch the prey by surprise.
there isnt one exept one is the predator and one is prey
There are different forms of the predator-prey relationships in Fiji islands. The mountain lion and deer is the most common type of predator-prey relationship.
The prey is the food, or in human's case the hunted, and the predator is the hunter(human or animal).
Because when a predator feeds on prey, the prey population goes down. When the prey population goes down, then so does the predator population. When the prey population recovers, then the predators soon after prey on the prey, and it repeats.
