This linking together of food chains are called food webs.

Consumers must compete for food sources.

Populations of species can change over time.

How it really is

Animals must work to get energy from food.

Sometimes prey may have different types of predators.

The predators must compete to get that food.

At the same time, those animals may have multiple predators.

These linking food chains are called food webs.

Worst case scenarios

Food webs can change drastically if specific organisms are increased, decreased, or removed.

Organisms could be affected by diseases, natural disasters, human disasters, human involvement, and other reasons.

Let’s discuss the cane toad.
