Then the smaller one must change its habits. Example: Leopards. Leopards share habitat with lions in Africa and tigers in Asia. Leopards feed on many of the same animals, with the exception of adults of the larger herbivores, such as buffalo and gaur. Leopards may hunt during different times of day, and will cache their prey in trees to keep it away from their larger cousins.
Yes.
Two different species within the same ecosystem may compete for resources such as food, water, and shelter. For example, herbivores might vie for limited plant resources, while carnivores may compete for prey. Additionally, they may also contend for breeding sites or territory, which are crucial for their survival and reproduction. Such competition can influence population dynamics and community structure within the ecosystem.
Lions and hyenas compete for food sources such as prey animals. Trees in a forest compete for sunlight, water, and nutrients in the soil. Birds within the same species may compete for mates and nesting sites.
When prey is scarce, a carnivore will adapt its hunting strategies to be more efficient, such as hunting in different areas or at different times. They may also resort to consuming a wider range of prey species or exhibiting cooperative hunting behaviors with other members of their species to increase their chances of success. In extreme cases, a carnivore may enter a state of torpor or reduce their activity levels to conserve energy until prey numbers increase.
Human activities such as deforestation, urbanization, pollution, and hunting can interfere with an owl's niche by destroying their habitat, reducing their prey availability, and causing disturbances that can disrupt their breeding and hunting behaviors. These activities can lead to declines in owl populations and threaten their survival.
Competition is when Organisms of the same or different species compete for resources, it negatively affects both organisms. Predation is the relationship between two species as the predator feeds on the prey while the prey adapts.
Usually animals of the same species compete for mates { two males usually compete over one female.} Animals could compete over prey or vegetation too.
Different species of ape compete for fruit, bark and other food as well as territory. Birds compete for seeds, berries and insects.
Probably other sharks of the same and different species. They will either compete for mates or fish.
Yes.
Of course they do. The compete with other raptors, generally of the same species, for those habitats and resources. Not to mention all other ground based predators interested in the same prey species.
When members of a species compete, they typically compete for resources such as food, water, shelter, and mates. These resources are essential for survival and reproduction, driving competition among individuals within the population.
Examples of symbiotic competitive relationships include the interactions between predator and prey species, where predators compete with each other for limited prey resources. In mutualistic relationships, species may compete with each other for shared resources, such as plants competing for sunlight in a forest canopy. Additionally, in some symbiotic relationships, organisms may compete for the same host or habitat space, such as different species of parasites coexisting on a single host organism.

Depends on the animal that is being over hunted. If it's a predator, then the number of its natural prey will increase. Might even cause numbers of other natural predators of that prey to increase, which could cause numbers of other species that they prey on to decrease, and so on. If it's prey, then the number of its natural predatores will decrease and might become endangered themselves. The over population of prey will compete with other species of animals that feed on the same food. These most probably will disrupt balance between animals that rely on the same rescources to survive.
Lions and hyenas compete for food sources such as prey animals. Trees in a forest compete for sunlight, water, and nutrients in the soil. Birds within the same species may compete for mates and nesting sites.
Different snakes have different dietary requirements, so ratsnakes would not compete with animals which do not eat rats. Some snakes eat insects, and some eat other snakes. Some snakes eat eggs. Depending on their diet, snakes compete with certain birds, mammals, amphibians, and other reptiles, and sea snakes compete with fish and other sea creatures which eat the same prey as they do.
