If Alligator meet the hear, it try to eat this _piece of protein_. If he'll meet a small bird - we would see the example of mutual cooperation.
But if either creature is bigger than the other then you can expect a somewhat different outcome, normally involving a forced exchange of protein.
When you look at the relationship between two entire species like rabbits and wolves it begins to look even more like cooperation where the rabbits cooperate by providing food for the wolves and the wolves cooperate by NOT WIPING OUT THE ENTIRE RABBIT POPULATION!
