Predators and Prey

The video explores the complex dynamics between predators and prey, highlighting the adaptations each has developed to survive. Predators like lions, pythons, and cheetahs use various strategies such as physical adaptations, senses, and speed to catch prey. Polar bears employ a waiting strategy to hunt seals. Prey animals have evolved adaptations like camouflage and alarm calls to evade predators. The predator-prey relationship drives co-evolution, leading to the development of impressive traits in the animal kingdom.
