There are many interactions between plants and animals. Most of the animals that live in the
Everglades eat meat. Some of these animals include: alligator, American Crocodile, various snakes, and the black bear.

Relationships
Symbiotic Relationships
There are many symbiotic relationships in the Everglades and here are two examples. One example
is between fish and coral. The fish protect the coral from harm and the coral provides a fish with a home. The
other symbiotic relationship is between woodpeckers and trees. The woodpecker eats harmful worms in the tree and the
tree provides a home for the woodpecker.
Predator/Prey relationships
Florida Panthers eat Key Deer. Key Deer, prey, are getting faster and so are the panthers.
