Bad Bloods are seen as more hostile and "mentally unstable" Predators. These sadistic hunters still use skills taught to them by their brothers, but use them dishonorably and purely for their own personal gain. Sign up to join this community.

How do these interactions create dynamic, ever-changing biological systems?
Aa Aa Aa. In predation, one organism kills and consumes another. Predation provides energy to prolong the life and promote the reproduction of the organism that does the killing, the predator, to the detriment of the organism being consumed, the prey. Predation influences organisms at two ecological levels. At the level of the individual, the prey organism has an abrupt decline in fitness, as measured by its lifetime reproductive success, because it will never reproduce again.
At the level of the community, predation reduces the number of individuals in the prey population. The best-known examples of predation involve carnivorous interactions, in which one animal consumes another.
Think of wolves hunting moose, owls hunting mice, or shrews hunting worms and insects. Less obvious carnivorous interactions involve many small individuals consuming a larger one. Such group predation is common among social carnivores such as lions, hyenas, and wolves. Group predation also occurs with ants and social spiders. This is, however, only part of the picture.
Seed consumption can sometimes constitute predation. Seeds are considered organisms. Under ideal circumstances, seeds grow to become plants. However, consumption of a seed kills the plant before it can grow, making seed consumption an example of predation.
Not all predators are animals. Carnivorous plants, such as the Venus fly trap and the pitcher plant, consume insects. Pitcher plants catch their prey in a pool of water containing digestive enzymes, whereas the Venus fly trap captures an insect between the two lobes of a leaf and seals the insect inside with digestive enzymes.
These plants absorb nutrients from the insects as they become available during digestion. On a microscopic scale, protozoa and bacteria also consume prey organisms. They play an important role in maintaining population sizes in microbial communities, which promotes the diversity of microorganisms and contributes to a stable community structure.
Predation and Adaptation. Figure 1: Adaptations to predation. A Cheetahs can sustain bursts of speed while chasing prey. Figure 2: Aposematic coloration. Brightly colored animals, such as the red-spotted newt a and monarch butterfly b , warn potential predators against consumption. Figure 3: Batesian mimicry. Non-toxic Papilio dardanus swallowtail butterfly females occur in a variety of forms, each of which mimics the physical appearance of toxic species.
Herbivory is the consumption of plant material by animals, and herbivores are animals adapted to eat plants. As in predator-prey interactions, this interaction drives adaptations in both the herbivore and the plant species it eats. For example, to reduce the damage done by herbivores, plants have evolved defenses, including thorns and chemicals.
To maximize nutrient intake, many herbivores have evolved adaptations that allow them to determine which plants contain fewer defensive compounds and more high-quality nutrients. Some insects, such as butterflies, have chemical sensors on their feet that allow them to taste the plant before they consume any part of it.
Mammalian herbivores often use their keen sense of smell to detect bitter compounds, and they preferentially eat younger leaves that contain fewer chemicals. Figure 4: Parasitoidism. A parastic wasp stings its prey before laying eggs on or in it a.
Parasite Transmission. Figure 5: Complex life cycle of the Plasmodium parasite. The life cycle requires both the primary human host and the intermediate Anopheles mosquito host for completion. Antagonistic interactions include predation, herbivory, and parasitism.
These interactions are complex, with predators consuming herbivores, plants and animals infected by parasites, and occasional disease outbreaks. Herbivorous, predatory, and parasitic interactions among organisms within communities regulate population sizes by preventing any one population from becoming overly abundant. Each type of interaction becomes more likely as the population size of the food source increases.
Thus these interactions are essential to maintaining the diversity of organisms that make up an ecological community. Each of these interactions can alter the balance of the food web, and removal of any part of the web can have a drastic impact on the community.
References and Recommended Reading Coley, P. In Predator , Anna Gonsalves refers to the creature as " El diablo que hace trofeos de los hombres ", or "The demon who makes trophies of men".
The term Yautja was first used in the novel Aliens vs. Predator: Prey , which was itself a novel adaptation of the original Aliens vs. Predator comic book series, the first media to discuss the Predators at length from their own perspective. The degree to which the name is recognized by the Yautja themselves has varied from source to source — for instance, in the Rage War trilogy , the Widow Clan does not recognize this word when it is applied to them.
Other sources, however, such as the anthology Predator: If It Bleeds , has the creatures directly referring to themselves as Yautja. The backstory of the Alpha Predator refers to the species as both Hish-qu-Ten and Yautja, with Hish being their name before the Amengi enslaved and bred them, and Yautja being the end result. While never named on-screen, the creatures from the first two films in the series have often come to be known as the Jungle Hunter and the City Hunter , respectively, nicknames based upon their chosen hunting grounds and first used in the video game Predator: Concrete Jungle.
With the release of Alien vs. Predator in , specific Predators were given individual names in the film's credits. This was repeated in Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem and Predators. In , the Predator franchise was licensed to Dark Horse Comics to produce comics based on the story and concept.
That same year Dark Horse began laying the groundwork for a cross-over series between the Predator and their other popular licensed sci-fi property, Aliens. Thus, the Aliens versus Predator line of comics also debuted that year.
While the Predator comics line focused mostly on stories—like the original films—told from a human point of view, with lone Predators as unknown alien beings visiting the Earth in the present or at different points in human history, causing havoc and terror for unknown reasons amongst their human prey; the Alien versus Predator comics—and their spin-off novelizations—started to delve more into stories told from the Predator race's point of view, and reveal more about their culture and customs.
It is in these comics, throughout the s, that what is now known as "yautja" culture, and even the name "yautja" originated. That said, yautja in the comics and novels have been prone to a degree of varying interpretations depending on the writer. In these stories, certain Predator clans have been shown to take unorthodox approaches such as accepting humans into their clans.
Inter-clan rivalries and internal mutinies are also depicted, showing the Predators as not having a totally uniform culture. Several times in Alien vs. Predator comics, Predators are seen killing or attempting to kill unarmed men, women and children, often in dishonorable ways such as ambushes or shooting their quarry in the back.
Much of the intricate organization and demographics given about the yautja clans and how they are governed in the s has come from the AvP video game franchise. It is here that they are shown to be governed by a Council of Ancients which consist of the oldest of the race. Their word is considered law and they ensure that the many Clans follow the law. Inter-clan warfare is watched over by the Ancients and they decide matters such as which planet is considered a clans hunting ground.

I wonder why? Maybe they're just like us. Technology removes us from our true selves - takes us away from the beast inside. Maybe the hunt is their way of keeping the beast alive. Leave 'em be in two, three, they'll be gone. Mess with them, and god only knows what might happen.

The super Predators are different subspecies of Yautja who are physically stronger and more vicious than the regular Predators.
They have red eyes and more reptilian appearance. Their dreadlocks are more swept back and their face is longer than the regular Predators.
When hunting, the super predators tend to use traps and Hell-Hounds to flush out their prey. The Assassin Predators also known as hybrid Predators are a group of Predators who genetically enhance themselves from species on several planets, including Earth. This is one of the physically biggest types of Predator, even bigger than the super Predators and about the same size as the black goo infected Predators.
They seem to fight other Predators and are able to do so easily due to their massive size. Not much is known about them as they are yet to appear in the upcoming The Predator movie by Shane Black, set to be released in September The bad blood Predators are a type of Predators who are disowned by their clansmen for breaking the rules or conducting something criminal.
They are often mentally unstable and tend to kill anyone or anything in sight. A notable bad blood Predator killed his clan members, stole a spacecraft and escaped to Earth to hunt in the Pine Barrens.
An enforcer Predator was sent to hunt him down, only to be killed by the bad blood Predator. The enforcer Predators are basically the Predator police force. Instead of hunting humans or Aliens, they hunt down criminal Predators who have broken the rules.
The enforcers are known for their white armor and spiky helmet. They tend to be focused on their mission and are not distracted by other hunting opportunities. A notable enforcer Predator appears in the Predator: Bad Blood comic , where he is finally killed by the bad blood Predator. The ancient Predators are a type of Yautja who are several centuries, some even a millennia old.
