Do all animals live in communities?

Do all animals live in communities?

6:38 And there is no animal on the earth and nor a bird that flies with its wings – but they are communities (umamun) like you. We have not neglected in the Book anything, then to their Lord they will be gathered.

(In this Verse, animals are compared to human beings, “they are communities LIKE you”. Human beings live a social and individual life, some abandon their children, and some want to live alone, others don’t, etc. These situations in humans are present in the animal world too, for example, jaguars or leopards are solitary creatures, but they have to meet to mate; they fight each other over territory (This is not different from humans); and turtles live in communities, even if eggs were abandoned, a “community” does not necessary mean “to live with parents”, but with others of your kind; likewise some humans abandon their children, or some fathers go away after the woman became pregnant, etc.)(The root of “umamun” (communities) is “Alif-Miim-Miim”, and it means “ummah: way/course/manner/mode of acting, etc.”. So, that word also implies a common manner/mode of acting)(Allah knows best)
