Question

What animals have no natural predators?

Answer 1

Hint: A biological interaction where one organism, the predator, kills and eats another organism, its prey is called predation. They may actively search for or pursue prey or wait for it, often concealed.

Complete answer:
Apex predators, sometimes referred to as alpha predators are predators at the top of the food chain with no natural predators. Apex predators are usually classified according to their trophic dynamics, meaning they are at the top of the food chain. On land, food chains are often much shorter, with secondary consumers - wolves, for example, eat mostly large herbivores (primary consumers) that eat vegetation (primary producers). Wildlife management, conservation, and ecotourism all use the concept of the apex predator. Apex predators have a long evolutionary history dating back to Anomalocaris, who ruled the oceans during the Cambrian period.

For millennia, humans have hunted game animals, birds, and fish with apex predators like the wolf, birds of prey, and cormorants. Humans have just recently begun to engage in innovative interactions with apex predators. Ecotourism encounters, such as those with the tiger shark, and rewilding efforts, such as the lynx's proposed reintroduction, are examples.

Note: In both aquatic and terrestrial environments, apex predators have an impact on prey species population dynamics and predator populations. Non-native predatory fish, for example, have wreaked havoc on once-dominant predators. When non-native smallmouth bass was removed from a lake, lake trout, the repressed native apex predator, varied its prey selection and boosted its trophic level, according to research.
