Mutualism is a biological interaction between individuals of two different species, where both individuals derive a fitness benefit, for example increased survivorship. Similar interactions within a species are known as co-operation.
On the Rio Grande, various species cohabitate in order to make things better for the other. As an example, the silvery minnow would be unable to survive without the water of the river. Certain birds in the ecosystem are dependant on fish in the river for survival. If the fish all stick together in a larger group, there is a lower chance that they will be caught by predators, such as falcons, that reside along the lower Rio Grande river valley.
