The Ecology of Cannibalism Eating, its a necessary part of our daily life as humans, we eat fruits, vegetables, fast food, junk food, & so many more. But did you know that humans used to, & still do, eat other humans? Whether it be a tribal/religious reason or for any other reason, humans easily other humans.

In a way mushrooms, & Cannibals are similar because when something dies, mushrooms digest the external & internal organs of the slowly decaying organisms & gain energy from the organisms, while cannibals feed off the decaying flesh & organs of another human, henceforth leading me to believe that cannibals are detritivores. Like many other organisms, cannibals have a system of taxonomy to classify the taxonomic groups of living organisms. The taxonomy of the cannibals themselves is very simple, there is most likely a leader of a family, or clan of the cannibals, who directs the orders, & tells the others what to do. Then there are the lower cannibals, those are the ones that live amongst the others & interact by either sharing the flesh & organs, or fighting against the other cannibals to get their
