If two predators with one prey occurs in natural habitat, the Lotka Volterra equation for the population growth is given as

The ‘a’ is growth rate of prey, ‘p1’ is predation rate of predator 1 and ‘p2’ is predation rate of predator 2. ‘b’ is the death rate of predator 1 and ‘c’ is the death rate of predator 2. ‘d1’ and ‘d2’ are the growth rate of both predators with predation. If death rate of predator 1 is greater than predator 2 (b>c), then which species will go extinct as time tends to infinity (t→∞)?

The fox and rabbit follow the predator-prey relationship in the forest. The population growth for both species is represented by Lotka-Volterra set of differential equation,

Rabbit : where a=0.4 and b=0.05

Fox : where c=0.2 and d= 0.005

‘a’ is the growth rate of rabbit population and ‘b’ is predation rate. Factor ‘c’ represents the mortality rate of fox and ‘d’ as growth of fox with predation.

Which is of the following slope fields plot represents the variation of fox population with rabbit population if the initial population of rabbit and fox is 20 and 4 respectively?

In a natural habitat, wolf and rabbit form a predator prey relationship and the population growth of both species is governed by Lotka Volterra equation. The relation is given as,
