If Alligator meet the hear, it try to eat this _piece of protein_. If he'll meet

  But if either creature is bigger than the other then you can expect a

  protein.

When you look at the relationship between two entire species like rabbits
and wolves it begins to look even more like cooperation where the rabbits
cooperate by providing food for the wolves and the wolves cooperate by NOT
WIPING OUT THE ENTIRE RABBIT POPULATION!

It's called balance.
