This video shows our group's recent trip to the New England Aquarium and the types of species interactions we saw there. The aquarium was a great place to see different ecological communities and the variety of species found in them. Our video illustrates the types of species interactions that we saw on our journey; competition, predation, herbivory, and mutualism. Competition in nature takes place when organisms are trying to obtain the same limited resource. In the aquarium the penguins and their quest to obtain as much fish as possible was a prime great example of competition. Predation is a very important type of species interaction because it greatly influences the composition of an ecological community. We thought we would be able to see predation when we saw the shark in the giant ocean tank considering it is a tertiary consumer. This was until we were informed that the sharks, the barracuda and the other predators were kept well fed to insure the safety of the smaller tank residents. The plants in many of the tanks served the purpose of the exploitive interaction herbivory. Furthermore, we were also able to see mutualism and symbiosis when we examined the coral reefs. The species interactions that we have covered in our video are a few of the many seen everyday in nature. The species interactions you see in different communities are so important because they help determine "the composition, structure, and function of communities" (101).
