Question
two species that compete for exactly the same resources cannot coexist/live together successfully die fight
According to the competitive exclusion principle (also known as Gause's law), two species competing for the exact same limited resources (such as food, space, etc.) cannot coexist stably in the long - term. One species will out - compete the other, leading to the local extinction of the inferior competitor. While they may fight (intraspecific or interspecific aggression) during the competition process, the key outcome predicted by the principle is about coexistence. And "die" is too absolute as it doesn't account for the possibility of one species out - competing the other rather than both dying.
