A great egret and neotropic cormorant competing over territory
Competition is an interaction between organisms or species in which both require one or more resources that are in limited supply (such as food, water, or territory). Competition lowers the fitness of both organisms involved since the presence of one of the organisms always reduces the amount of the resource available to the other.
