System Zoo Z404 Prey and two Predator Populations from Hartmut Bossel (2007) System Zoo 2 Simulation Models. Climate, Ecosystems, Resources
Often a single prey population is the source of food for several competing predators (e.g. mice as prey of foxes and birds of prey). Here again a reliable intuitive assessment of long-term development resulting from the particular system relationship is impossible. A simulation model can assist in recognizing development trends inherent in the system structure even if in reality a variety of other factors determine the development and may cause it to proceed on a somewhat different path.
After running the default settings Bossel describes A=0.2, B=0.2, Initial Values X=0 Y=2 and Z=0 and varying C=2,3,4,5 shows period doubling and transition to chaotic behavior
