Even Insects and Animals Understand Teamwork

Humans could learn quite a bit from animals and insects about teamwork. Many species of animals and insects have an instinct to work as a team in order to accomplish goals for the good of the team. A lion pride, flock of birds, school of fish and colony of ants are all examples of species that use teamwork to accomplish a common goal.

Ants are one of the best examples of effective teamwork. They do not compete for recognition, instead, they work together to succeed and accomplish a common goal. 

Bees are another great example on how teamwork is essential for their survival.

All bees work together to build a better home. They all bring honey home to build their hive for their queen. 

A lion pride is a great example on how they use teamwork to catch food. They know that individually they will not be able to take down some of their prey, so instead, they work as a team to take down their targets. They each have specific roles and procedures during the take down and by having this, they can become a very successful, and efficient, team. 

Now that we know that different types of species work as a team for a common goal, is it possible for two different species to form a successful team? If so, which species do this and how do they work together?
