The Relationship Between Canadian Lynx And The Snowshoe Hare

Improved Essays
The main operating concern of all species in any ecosystem or natural environment is rooted in the battle for survival. This constant battle for survival is most highlighted in the two main modes of species interaction; categorized as predation or competition. This research focused on applying biological mathematics to analyzing predation relationships, especially the relationship between the Canadian Lynx and the Snowshoe Hare. This predation relationship is quite special, because these species interact in a relatively isolated manner compared to others, meaning their populations fluctuated in a regular cycle due to lack of significant external variables on the relationship. These population fluctuations can be defined and analyzed mathematically
