Detailed explanation-1: -Prey are referred to those animals which get hunted by predators. For example, snake may feed on mice and may be called a predator in this situation. However when a hawk feeds on a snake, the snake becomes a prey.
Detailed explanation-2: -But did you know that many animals are both predators and prey? When a spider is sitting in its web waiting for its insect meal, it is the predator. However, if a lizard’s tongue darts out and catches the spider, the spider becomes the lizar’s prey.
