Predators are the top of the food web. Why?
Predators are animals that eat other animals. They don’t have to be big, but they do have to be really lucky to survive. Why is being a predator a tough life? Guest scientists Gregg Losinski, Regional Conservation Educator for the Idaho Department of Fish and Game and Jon Rachael, State Wildlife Manager for the Idaho Department of Fish and Game answer students’ questions about predators.
