Not necessarily because of intensely different environmental factors. Different animals can carve out niches in the same environment. Beetles eat dung and thrive on that, while termites eat wood/grass and thrive on that---all in the same environment.
Genetic mutations sometimes are deleterious, and sometimes proffer an advantage in an environment to a specific organism. If the frequency of alleles in a population shifts enough, then that mutation will take foot.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
