Predator-Prey Simulation Activity Pg. 49 activity 1-2C
Rules: • Prey and predators must stand 0.5 m back to habitat • If half of more of prey is covered by predator, the prey has been CAPTURED and is removed • In each round, a predator MUST capture 3 prey to survive • If fewer than 3 prey caught, predator DIES • Each predator that captures 3 prey lives to reproduce one new offspring (3 prey=1 new predator) • If ALL predators die, new predator enters habitat • Prey population DOUBLES each generation (i.e. if 10 survive20 next round) • Maximum carrying capacity of habitat is 200 prey
