The sound attracts nearby creatures that are disposed to investigate it. Some creatures that live near shriekers learn that the fungus's noise means there is food nearby. A shrieker has no means of attack. Instead, it lures prey to its vicinity by emitting a piercing loud noise (hence its name). Shriekers and violet fungi often work together to attract and kill prey. When the shriekers' hellish racket attracts a curious creature, the violet fungus tries to kill it. Both enjoy the fruits of a successful hunt.
