Question

why do animals live together

Answer 1

Many of our encounters with animals in the wild involve groups. Familiar examples of groups include schools of herring in the ocean, murders of crows in the city and herds of wilde beests in the African savannah. Why animals live in groups has been a hotly debated topic for animal behaviour students for many years. Indeed, living in groups must have provided advantages to individuals during evolution to compensate for obvious disadvantages such as having to share resources with others. The devil is in understanding how a balance is struck for each species between the costs and the benefits of living in groups.
