Interaction Among Animals
 Interaction is an active relationship among living things that are dependent
upon each other
 Interaction between same species is known as intraspecies
 Interaction between different species is known as interspecies
 Both interactions may occur either in the form of cooperation or competition
Example of interactions among animals :
Intraspecies :
 Bees work together to build their nest (cooperation)
 Chicks compete for food (competition)

Interspecies :
 Antelopes have a good sense of hearing and smell. Baboons have a very good
sense of sight. They work together to detect predators (cooperation)
 Eagles and snakes compete for limited food (competition)
Animals Living in Groups
 Animals that live in groups and search for food together in the same habitat
 Examples : bees, termites, storks, fish, goat, swallows, lions, deers
 Advantages : they work together to build nest, find food, maintain safety, protect
their young and control their territory
 Disadvantages : Easily infected by an outbreak of diseases, easily detected by
predators ( weak one difficult to save themselves)
Animals Living in Solitary
 Animals that live without other members of their species
 Do anything alone
 Have enough space to rest and look for food in their habitat
 Examples : woodpeckers, tapirs, squirrels, spiders, hornbills, tigers, pythons
 Advantages : can overcome the problem of limited food resources, reduce the competition in
finding mates
 Disadvantages : difficult to defend themselves from enemies, difficult finding partners during
mating season
