The hare, hunted by a fox, suddenly swerves and breaks the geometry of the chase. A flock of small birds violently attacks a bird of prey. Fragile mollusks learn to coordinate their movements to outwit a ferocious lobster. These are just some of the examples with which Valter Tucci (The Intelligence of Prey: The Powers of the Vulnerable Will Change the World, Bompiani) overturns the narrative of nature as a reign of oppression, where the strongest animal always prevails. Because when an ecosystem collapses, it's not the predators that drive change. It's the prey. In conversation with the author Telmo Pievani.
