A lion is an example of a predator. A predator is an animal that naturally preys on others.
When a predator reduces the number of one species in a habitat, the population of competing species can increase. With less competition for food, water, and shelter, a species can thrive and reproduce more rapidly than when it is being out-competed.
The introduction of a new predator can have the species eaten with no time to evolve to defend against it
Yes.
Typically, the species that it ate overpopulate, and the ecosystem is disrupted.
The lion's niche is that of a top predator in its ecosystem, with a crucial role in controlling herbivore populations and maintaining balance in the food chain. Lions help regulate prey species, which in turn affects vegetation and other species in the ecosystem.
A nondiscriminatory predator refers to a predator that preys on any available species within its habitat, without specific targeting or preference for a particular species. These predators tend to feed on a variety of prey without showing selectivity based on species.
The population size (number) of a predator species is directly controlled by the availability of a food source (prey). The more prey available, the greater growth in the number of predator species.

The Polar bear is a giant apex predator and hence it shares a Predator - Prey relationship with other species.
Yes.
The grey wolf is a carnivorous species; it is both an active hunting predator and a scavenger.

The Predator is a fictional extraterrestrial species featured in the Predator science-fiction franchise, characterised by its trophy hunting of other dangerous species for sport, including humans and its fictional counterparts, Aliens.
The population size of predator species is typically controlled by the availability of prey, competition with other predators, and environmental factors like habitat and climate. The population size can fluctuate based on these factors, leading to dynamic predator-prey relationships.
Humans are the only predator to the cougar. Though the cougar is a predator to many different species of animals.
