Birds fly into a crocidiles mouth to clean its teeth. The bird is getting food from the croc's mouth while the croc is getting its teeth clean. This is a win-win situation, so if the crocidile ate the bird, the croc wouldn't get its teeth clean.
any relationship shared between 2 organisms that is mutually beneficial for the both concerned is called a symbiotic relationship environment. Like a relationship between the Egret bird and the crocodile. The bird helps the animal with cleaning of his teeth and in return gets food.
