African_Predators

African Predators The top African predators are constantly competing with each other. Even though there is some type of hierarchy within the desert, all predators have some type of competition going on. For one thing, when one animal is killed, all of the predators try to get it. Therefore, the strongest, fastest, and smartest usually gets to keep the prey. However, other adaptations like smell and hearing give certain animals advantages over one another. Some interference competition that goes on is when, let’s say for example a hyena kills a springbok. Within a few minutes there will be more hyenas, a pack of jackals, and maybe leopard, all competing for the same prey that was originally caught by one, single, hyena. Some exploitation competition that occurs is simply just the order of the top predators. For example, the chances that a leopard will go up to a lion who has a kill predators, one, animals, prey, leopard, hyenas, each, competition, within, type, try, top, think, therefore, specialists, special, same, over, lions, knows, just, hyena, example, even, competing, because, animal, african, adaptations, years, very, thousands, though, thing, them, take, surpass, strongest, springbok, smell, smartest, single, simply, set, say, rest, rare, past, pack, originally
