Answer:

Foraging and competition.

Step-by-step explanation:

Social behavior refers to relationship and interaction that exists between two or more organisms in which behavior influences the same species organism and affect their reproduction and survival.

The disadvantage of social behavior is foraging and competition , this is because as the animals are into groupings and behavior influences their performance they search resources together in the same form if behavior, feeding the same manner and this eventually lead to competition, they begin to compete or strive for unlimited resources and the powerful ones overtake the weak ones because the resources available will not be enough for their satisfaction due to movement in groups.
