Design Your task is to design either a predator or prey with at least 5 key features which make it the best predator / prey it can be You need to draw out the organisms habitat (including what its environment is like), explaining how it is adapted to be the best You also need to include what the organism hunts / is hunted by Ensure you label the key features of your organism, and give it a name!
