Predation is an ecological interaction where one organism (the predator) captures and consumes another organism (the prey). The predator typically obtains energy and nutrients from the prey, while the prey is usually killed in the process. Predation is a major driving force in most ecosystems and is an important factor in determining species composition and abundance. Examples of predation include wolves hunting deer, spiders eating insects, and lions killing antelopes.
