Predation is when one animal hunts and kills another animal for food. It matters because it's a fundamental way that animals survive and obtain nutrition, and it shapes how different species interact with each other in nature.

Predation är ett begrepp inom ekologi som beskriver en form av biologisk interaktion då en organism dödar och äter en bytesorganism. Mest känt är rovdjur som jagar bytesdjur, men även köttätande växter utför predation. Predatorer kan börja äta av sitt byte innan det dött, men predation resulterar inte alltid i att bytet dör, så kallad mikropredation. Ett typiskt exempel på detta är blodsugande insekter.
