Can a predator be prey?

Yes, a predator can also be prey. In the food chain or web, predator-prey relationships are not always straightforward and can vary depending on circumstances and the specific species involved. It is possible for a predator to become prey to a larger or more powerful predator. For example, a lion, which is a predator that preys on other animals, can be hunted and preyed upon by a bigger predator such as a crocodile or another lion. Similarly, a fox that hunts smaller animals can fall prey to a larger predator like a wolf or a bear.
