no a whale is not. Humans are though
no it is a k-strategist
Bees are not R-strategist. Bees are considered to be K-strategist because they live in stable environments and produce few offspring.
Flamingos are K-strategists
Most organisms lie on a continuum between r-strategists and K-strategists, and the octopus is one of those. The octopus lays a lot of eggs, typical of an r-strategist, but also invests parental care into its offspring, typical of a K-strategist.
R-strategist species have many offspring with little parental care, while K-strategist species have fewer offspring with more parental care.

k-Strategist but act like r-Strategists in many such as expansion.
Yes, r-strategist are known for reproducing quickly; humans can be classified as r-strategist as well.
Spiders are typically considered r-strategists due to their high reproductive rates, short lifespans, and large numbers of offspring. They invest less energy in individual offspring and prioritize quantity over quality in terms of reproduction. This strategy allows them to quickly populate new environments and adapt to changing conditions.
R-strategist species typically have high reproductive rates, short lifespans, and produce many offspring with little parental care. They prioritize quantity over quality in reproduction. In contrast, k-strategist species have lower reproductive rates, longer lifespans, and invest more time and resources in raising fewer offspring with higher chances of survival. They prioritize quality over quantity in reproduction.
A K strategist or K species are animals with few, and often large offspring. The nurture and protect their young, reproduce later in life, live long, and population size is stable and near carrying capacity. Examples are elephants, humans, etc... A R strategist is something like insects and weeds.
