Important Note: This is just a small sample. The prey of an animal can vary widely depending on the species, geographic location, and availability of food sources.
Keep in mind that the relationship between predator and prey is complex and dynamic. The prey's behavior and adaptations can help it evade predators, while the predator's hunting techniques and adaptations allow it to catch prey. This continuous interaction shapes the evolution of both predator and prey.
