Competition
Competition is when two or more organisums are trying to occupy the same niche at the same place and time. But there are different types of competition. There is interspecific competition and there is intraspecific competition.
Interspecific Competition
Interspecific competition is competition between two or more different species. This could happen with many different types of animals in the Brazil Rainforest. An example of this is when two different species of animals compete for the same tree as a home. Like a monkey and a sloth competeing for the same area of living on a large tree.
Intraspecific Competition
Intraspecific competition is a type of competition where two or more of the same
species of animals are competeing for something, that is usually a shared
resource. An example of this that you would most likely find in the Brazilian
Rainforest is when two carmivores of the same species start competeing over prey
or hunting teritory. A more specific example of this is when two jaguars of two
different prides start competeing for hunting territory for the best prey.
