Animal Congregation



Confer ពិភាក្សា                        congregate ផ្តុំគ្នា                       mound ពំនូកស្រមោច
Pack ហ្វូងចចក                                 herd ហ្វូងប្រើស                      
Prey សត្វដែលទន់ខ្សោយសំរាប់សត្វដទៃប្រម៉ាញ់
Predator សត្វដែលមានប្រៀបប្រម៉ាញលើសត្វដទៃ


Many types of animals combine the advantages of family association with those conferred by membership in still larger groups. Bees congregate in hives; some fish move in schools; ants gather in mounds; wolves live in packs; deer associate in herds. The main advantage of membership in a mass community is the safety that it provides. A large group of prey may be easier for a predator to find at any given point than is a small one, and a predator may think twice before taking on such a group; if a predator does decide to challenge a large group, it may merely encounter a confusing mass of moving bodies and possibly may not succeed in its primary goal.
