What is "predator"?
Predator refers to a group of animals that primarily feed on other animals, known as prey, in order to survive. Predators have adaptations that enable them to locate, catch, and kill their prey, such as sharp teeth, powerful jaws, and excellent senses of sight, smell, and hearing. Some examples of predators include lions, wolves, sharks, and eagles. Predators are typically at the top of the food chain in their ecosystem and play a vital role in controlling the populations of other animals. However, human activities such as hunting and habitat destruction have threatened many predator species, leading to declines in their populations and negative effects on the environment.
