Description
Within any environment, different groups of species interact with one another in varying ways. Predator-prey interactions, called Predation, is one way two types of species can interact within an ecosystem. Dynamical systems can be utilized to understand how these species evolve with time. The goal of this presentation is to explore how differential equations are used to create a dynamical model of predator-prey situations which can then be used to predict long-term behaviors and changes in predator and prey populations.
