English term or phrase: carnivore guild
The socially dominant carnivores ate as much as 60 percent of all the hervibores killed by predators.
This means that the rest of the CARNIVORE GUILD had to split up the other 40 percent.


¿Qué significa aquí "guild"? ¿Cadena trófica de los carnívoros o hay otra palabra técnica?

Muchas gracias,
