Predatory behavior refers to actions taken by individuals or groups to exploit, manipulate, or harm others for personal gain. This behavior can be observed in various contexts, including human interactions, animal behavior, and even in business practices. In humans, it often manifests as bullying, harassment, or deceitful tactics aimed at vulnerable individuals. In the animal kingdom, predatory behavior is a natural instinct where predators hunt and kill prey for survival. This includes strategies like stalking, ambushing, or using speed to capture food. Understanding predatory behavior helps in recognizing harmful patterns in both social and ecological systems.
