Competitive exclusion, also known as Gause's principle, is an ecological principle stating that two competing species cannot coexist indefinitely in the same environment if they rely on the same limited resources. This principle implies that one species will eventually outcompete the other and drive it to extinction or emigration from that particular niche.
A classic example of competitive exclusion is the competition between different wildflower species for sunlight in a meadow. If two species require full sun to thrive, one species might be more efficient at capturing sunlight due to factors like leaf size or growth pattern. Over time, the less efficient competitor might be outcompeted for sunlight and struggle to survive in the meadow.
