First of all a squid is a predator it eats fish. Yet it is also prey, Squids are eaten by whales.
both
It's a predator. It eats anchovies, flying fish, mackerel, offal, sardines, and squid.
Baby squid will feed on plankton until they are large enough to catch and eat other prey.
Well, that is kinda hard to explain. Because, a prey can be a predator, and a predator can be a prey. That is because of food chains. For an example, a small fish might eat a plankton, and a squid might eat the fish, and a octopus might eat the squid, and a shark would eat the octopus, and a fishermen might kill and eat the shark. The small fish was a predator that ate the plankton, but then the fish became a prey, because the squid ate it. It is impossible for a animal to be JUST a prey/predator unless they don't eat animals.
I guess you could consider it both. A squid can kill with their ink but other ocean animals could react back and kill it.
people! we EAT squid!
No!
The squid is very important to the ocean ecosystem, serving as both predator and prey. As predators, they help keep the population of their prey in check. As prey, they serve as important food sources for sperm whales and some other predators.
Example: Lion = Predator Gazelle = Prey The predator seeks after the prey.
A prey is what a predator hunts down to kill and eat. A prey's predator is what eats it. For example: A gazelle is the prey of a leopard (predator).
Reptiles can be predator or prey.
A cow is not a predator or prey
