The following figure is not necessary to solve the problem. But it does illustrate what's
happening:
3. In the study of ecosystems, predator-prey models are often used to study the
interaction between species. Consider a population of tundra wolves, given by [ Ð>Ñ and
caribou, given by GÐ>Ñ, in northern Canada. The interaction of these populations has
been modeled by the following system of equations:

.G
.>
.[
.>
œ +G  ,G[
œ  -[  .G[
where +ß ,ß -ß . are positive constants (which a biologist might estimate from population
data).
.[
a) What values of .G
.> and .> correspond to stable populations?
b) How would the statement “the caribou go extinct” be represented mathematically?
c) What would lim .[
.> œ ! mean ?
>Ä_
d) Suppose a population biologist looks at some data and (somehow) decides that the
following values are reasonable estimates:
+ œ !Þ!&
, œ !Þ!!"
- œ !Þ!&
. œ !Þ!!!"
Find all population pairs ÐGß [ Ñ that lead to stable populations. According to this
model, is it possible for the species to live in harmony or will one or both species become
extinct?
e) On each line of the original pair of equations, why is there both a positive and a
negative term?
Solutions:
a) “The wolf population [ is stable” means that it has reached a constant value, so
.[
.G
.> œ !Þ Similarly, the population of caribou is stable if .> œ !.
b) “The caribou go extinct” could be expressed as lim GÐ>Ñ œ ! (“as time passes, the
>Ä_
number of Caribou approaches !”). However, there cannot be a fractional number of
caribou. If GÐ>Ñ “gets closer and closer to ! as time passesß ” it must be that eventually
G œ !Þ
c) lim .[
.> œ ! means that that rate of change of the size of the wolf population
>Ä_
approaches !, that is, that the wolf population [ approaches some stable value.
.>
d) With the values given, the equations become  .[
.G
.>
œ !Þ!&G  !Þ!!"G[
œ  !Þ!&[  !Þ!!!"G[
By part a) stable populations requires:
!Þ!&G  !Þ!!"G[ œ GÐ!Þ!&  !Þ!!"[ Ñ œ !
œ  !Þ!&[  !Þ!!!"G[ œ [ Ð  !Þ!&  !Þ!!!"GÑ œ !
The first equation has solutions G œ ! or [ œ
!Þ!!"
!Þ!&
œ &!Þ
If G œ !ß the second equation becomes  !Þ!&[ œ ! or [ œ !Þ
The pair ÐG œ !ß [ œ !Ñ is one way to have a stable situation between the
caribou and wolf populations.
If [ œ &!, the second equation becomes
#Þ&
Ð  !Þ!&ÑÐ&!Ñ  !Þ!!!"Ð&!ÑG œ  #Þ&  !Þ!!&G œ ! or G œ !Þ!!&
œ &!!Þ
The pair ÐG œ &!!ß [ œ &!Ñ is another way to have a stable situation between
the caribou and wolf populations. The species can live in harmony.
e) Looking at the equation .G
.> œ !Þ!&G  !Þ!!"G[ : if there were no wolves, then
.G
.> œ !Þ!&G  ! so the caribous populations would be constantly growing (no
predators!). !Þ!&G corresponds to a “birth rate.” The negative term  !Þ!!"G[
corresponds to a “death rate” that comes from the “interaction” of wolves and caribou. In
this model, .G
.> œ rate of change in caribou population œ “birth rate  death rate.”
The same sort of analysis applies to .[
.> œ  !Þ!&[  !Þ!!!"G[ . If there were no
.[
caribou, the equation would be .> œ  !Þ!&[  ! and the wolf population would be
decreasing (no prey). The positive term contributes to growing the wolf population due
to interaction of the wolves (predators) with the prey (caribou).
