surrounding presents feeding challenges because not too many organisms can live under these conditions. In order to increase their chances of survival‚ they have adapted in eating a multitude of different sustenance. This shows a direct effect in how ecology plays a role in their feeding behavior. The environment also influences feeding behavior of geladas. Rather than multiple options‚ geladas are specialized graminivorous feeders because of their high grassland habitats. This feeding preference allows

Ecological niche is one of the most important concepts to understand. An animal or plant lives in a certain place is active at a particular times‚ and eats certain things; all these factors describe its ecological niche. Our environment is parted into millions of ecological niches‚ each that represents a probable home for life
