What are animal fighting tactics?

Animal fighting tactics can be broadly categorized into three effective strategies as discussed by John Danaher:

1. Concentration of force: This method involves taking concentrated force to exploit a weakness in the opponent, which often allows breaking through to a vulnerability where the opponent cannot respond or recover.
2. Ambush tactics: The element of surprise is crucial as many successful predators employ this technique. Ambushing an opponent unexpectedly can significantly boost success in combat situations.
3. Endurance: Some species and combatants utilize their endurance as a weapon, wearing down their opponent over time to win battles through sheer persistence and stamina.
