  Predation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The difference between a predator and a parasite is that for a predator killing the prey is necessary for consuming it, but for parasites it is not even desirable because a parasite lives on or in its host.
There may be hierarchies of predators; for example, though small birds prey on insects, they may in turn be prey for snakes, which may in turn be prey for hawks.
Such predators may have a profound influence on the balance of organisms in a particular ecosystem; introduction or removal of this predator, or changes in its population, can have drastic cascading effects on the equilibrium of many other populations in the ecosystem.

Some might consider herbivores to be predators as well, but this is arguable as most herbivores only consume parts of their food species, leaving the remainder alive.
A predator at the top of its food chain (that is, one that is preyed upon by no organism) is called an apex predator; examples include the Great White Shark and Tiger.

For instance, a large predator fish like a shark that is well fed in an aquarium will typically ignore the smaller fish swimming around it while the prey fish take advantage of the fact that the big fish is apparently harmless and treat it as simply a big but equal inhabitant of their living space.
The analogy that the Predator hunting humans on Earth is like a human hunter on safari fits well here: the Predators look for a region of fighting, searching for prey that has proved its prowess in fighting; for example, a human hunter would want to hunt the largest alpha-male buck lion it could find.
Thus, the Predator in the first film hunted in a rain forest filled with guerilla-wars because it was in the middle of a swealteringly hot jungle, and because mercenary and commando forces were fighting there.
