• Survival Strategy: K (live at or below CC-primates, larger mammals) and R (exponential growth-weeds, insects, fish, rabbits, mice)
  Salmon: R strategists have an abundance of offspring in the hopes that a few will make it.
  short maturation time, breed young short lifespan, produce many offspring very quickly, high mortality
  rates and invest relatively little in parental care.Instead the behavior of the young is
  determined by their genes. young are precocial, meaning that they often can make it
  on their own without any instruction from their parents.
