Answer:

Wildebeests are preys.

Step-by-step explanation:

Prey is the term which refers to the animal which is hunted by other strong animal for their food. In forest we can find three different types of animals based upon the mode of their nutrition.

They are:

  • Herbivore: Plant eaters
  • Carnivore: Flesh eaters
  • Omnivores: Both plant as well as flesh eaters.

In case of carnivore, as they are flesh eaters, they hunt animals. The animal which is been getting hunted are called prey. For example for animal such as lion, wild besets, Deer, Rabbit, etc., are called prey.
