because usually there is enough food to go to all the animals but there are also a huge number of predators after the animals that are fat because they just ate a hearty meal.
(what a mouthful!)
Some of the main predators of elephants are lions, tigers, hyenas, and crocodiles. However, due to their size and strength, adult elephants are not often targeted by predators, with calves being more vulnerable. In addition to these natural predators, humans also pose a significant threat to elephants through poaching and habitat destruction.
HA! full grown crocodiles have no natural preadators! except humans. babies on the other are easy prey for hunters like racoons and storks. Pythons introduced into the Florida everglades have been know to kill crocs
The Canterbury Mudfish prefers lots of cover (aquatic plants) to hide from all their different predators in, and also, to lay all their eggs in. Generally, they have lots of species feeding on them, but their main predators are; Trout, Eels, Herons, and Bitterns. For more details, please see sites listed below.
In general Bombus species do not have many predators because of their vivid warning coloration. Skunks (Mephitis mephitis), Black bears (Ursus americana), and other mammals will consume the comb, adult bees, and their brood. Shrikes (Lanius spp.) and Blue jays (Cyanocitta cristata) are both reported to feed on bumblebees.There are more parasites of bees rather than predators. In the case of Bombus, other Bombus larvae in the subgenus Psithyrus parasitize in the Bombus nest on their larvae.
Gorillas, unlike like other African apes, have almost no natural predators due to their large size and group lifestyle. Only large cats such as leopards have been known to regularly prey on them. More than any other animal, gorillas' biggest threat is man.
Because death by predators is part of the circle of life
Death by predators is often seen as a more natural process because it is a fundamental aspect of the food chain and ecosystem dynamics, where species rely on one another for sustenance and balance. Predation can also contribute to the health of populations by culling the weak and ensuring that resources are not over-exploited. In contrast, death by starvation typically results from a disruption in the ecosystem, such as habitat loss or overpopulation, making it less "natural" in the context of ecological balance. Thus, predation reflects a more active role in the cycle of life, while starvation often indicates environmental stress or imbalance.
They are not Exactly predators, more like natural enemies.
There will be more animals than the food supply can support. This will cause death by either starvation or due to fighting for food. These deaths will in turn affect the food chain, since all animals are either prey or predators.
More animal population is going to decrease by the years because animals are going to be killed by starvation and not being able to find homes to hide from there predators in.
Leave more offspring
Nutrition is very good for humanity; without it we suffer from malnutrition (which in its more severe form becomes starvation and death).
That is not something that can be measured. Was slow starvation more cruel than being shot on arrival?
Males.
who ordered the pilgrims to grow more pumpkins to avoid starvation?
Both starvation due to lack of food and sleep deprivation due to lack of sleep can lead to a quicker death, but starvation is generally considered to be more immediately life-threatening as the body requires essential nutrients from food to function properly. Sleep deprivation can have serious health consequences and impact longevity, but the body can typically survive longer without sleep compared to food.
The death adder, known for its potent venom and ambush hunting style, has few natural enemies due to its effective camouflage and defensive behaviors. However, some birds of prey, such as eagles and hawks, can successfully prey on them. Additionally, larger snakes may also pose a threat, particularly if they are faster or more aggressive. Overall, the death adder's primary defense mechanisms help it avoid many potential predators.
