Population Lab



In the beginning of the simulation, it was difficult for the wolves to capture three rabbits at the same time; therefore, the population of wolves was small. However, as the population of rabbits increased, it became easier for the wolves to catch the rabbits, and the population of wolves also increased.

As the simulation was progressing, the rabbits were too close to each other, so the wolves can catch a lots of them at once, therefore, the population of wolves increased too fast, and the population of rabbits became extinct at one point.


Basically, this simulation shows us that the best scenario would be both populations go up, it would benefit both populations to survive, and if one population suddenly goes down, it hurts the other population too.  Our goal should be that we have to try our best to balance the different populations in the nature.
