Normally when people talk about "symbiosis", they're talking about two or more different organisms cooperating to better survive and reproduce. The classical definition of symbiosis is actually much broader than this, and for good reason. Here we will look how evolutionary biologists understand symbiosis, all its different forms, and why it matters!

TICKS AND OPOSSUMS
Individual opossums can kill and eat over 5,000 ticks per week during during tick larval activity peaks in the state of New York: https://royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/full/10.1098/rspb.2009.1159
New York Times Overview of the research linked above (note, in this article they say 5,000 per season, but the paper itself says 5,000 per week during tick larval season which can last up to 2 months) https://www.newstimes.com/news/article/Robert-Miller-Opossums-killers-of-ticks-5413872.php

==== NOTE ====
The claim that caching acorns allows rainwater to leach out the tannins was confirmed by one study (the blue-jay paper above), but results failed to be duplicated in a followup study.
