ecological communication

Ecological communication refers to the ways living organisms interact and share information within their environments. These signals—such as sounds, colors, chemicals, or movements—help animals find food, avoid predators, mate, and coordinate social behaviors. It's a vital part of ecosystems, ensuring species can survive and thrive by effectively exchanging information through natural cues. This form of communication is often species-specific but can sometimes cross between different species, contributing to the complex relationships that maintain ecological balance.
