the killing of multiple individuals in one or more species-populations for use as a resource by each individual in another species population; the consumption of one animal (the prey) by another animal (the predator)

The study of how organisms interact with each other and with their surroundings is known as ecology. It focuses on understanding relationships between organisms and their environment, including topics such as competition, predation, symbiosis, and how ecosystems function.
Ecology can drive evolution by selecting for traits that are beneficial for survival in a particular environment. Environmental factors such as competition for resources, predation, and habitat availability can influence which traits are favored and passed on to future generations. Over time, this can lead to the adaptation of populations to their specific ecological niches.

Pradation or Predation. If it's Predation; Predation is an interaction in which one organism captures another organism. An animal that consumes another animal is a predation, and the animal consumed is the prey.

The gates of ecology is a text book of ecology that introduces the learners to the subject of ecology.
Branches of ecology include population ecology (study of how populations of organisms interact with their environment), community ecology (study of interactions between species in a given area), ecosystem ecology (study of the flow of energy and matter through ecosystems), and conservation ecology (study of how to protect and preserve biodiversity).

Predation is a term used to describe the predator feeding on its pray. For it to be predation the predator must directly effect the prays population.
