Roosters are primarily considered prey animals, as they are often hunted by larger predators such as foxes, hawks, and coyotes. However, they can exhibit predatory behaviors within their environment, such as foraging for insects and small reptiles. Overall, their role in the ecosystem is mainly as prey, while they occasionally take on predatory traits in specific contexts.
