#predatorandprey

Every animal on Earth is either hunting something or being hunted - sometimes both.

That relationship between predator and prey is one of the most important things happening in nature right now.

In this video, we break down exactly what predator-prey relationships are, the four ways predators hunt, how prey defends itself, and why the whole system keeps ecosystems in balance.

What you'll learn:

- What a predator is and what prey is (and why the same animal can be both)

- The 4 hunting strategies predators use - chase, stalk, ambush, teamwork

- How prey survives - camouflage, speed, numbers, and chemical defense

- Why removing predators tips the whole ecosystem out of balance

- The snowshoe hare and lynx 10-year cycle, the cheetah's 30-second sprint, and the octopus that fakes being 15 animals
