predator, prey

predator和 prey 是掠奪者和受害/犧牲者的關係
翻譯時不應像下述WSJ般將它們"固定"起來:

Asian Firms Become the Acquirers

亞洲公司“兔”變“鷹”

Asian companies are increasingly emerging as a predator rather than prey on the merger-and-acquisition front, with the region's robust growth and a credit crunch elsewhere contributing to the reversal of fortunes.
