In summary, the conversation suggests reading The Eagle Has Landed, Tiger Rising, Panther for UNIX Geeks, and Big, Bad Wolf, as well as researching Lotke-Volterra equations on CiteSeer. However, there may be technical difficulties with accessing the website. The conversation also mentions a phenomenon that occurs in a high level calculus class where a formula converges to 1.

It wouldn't hurt to read up on Lotke-Volterra equations either..

this is with the whole 100 meter thing... if and when you take a high level calculus class, you will note that this phenom. happens. it is quite cool to see it happen with a formula, and it does converge to 1. just as they were saying 1/2, 1/4, 1/8, ... 1/n, will go to 1. sorry, had to put that in there b/c it is awesome. :smile:
 

1. How do predators identify their prey?

Predators use a variety of senses, such as sight, smell, and sound, to identify potential prey. They also use their experience and knowledge of their environment to locate and track prey.

2. What strategies do predators use to catch their prey?

Predators use a variety of techniques to catch their prey, including ambush, chase, and group hunting. They may also use camouflage, speed, and stealth to increase their chances of a successful hunt.

3. How do predators avoid being detected by their prey?

Predators use a variety of tactics to avoid detection by their prey, such as blending into their surroundings, stalking from downwind, and remaining still until the right moment to strike. Some predators also use mimicry to appear as harmless creatures to their prey.

4. How do predators select their prey?

Predators select their prey based on a variety of factors, including availability, vulnerability, and energy efficiency. They may also choose prey based on their own physical abilities and hunting strategies.

5. What happens when the predator-prey relationship is disrupted?

When the predator-prey relationship is disrupted, it can have a significant impact on both populations. For example, if there is a decrease in predators, the prey population may increase, leading to overgrazing and depletion of resources. On the other hand, an increase in predators can lead to a decline in prey populations, which can have cascading effects on the entire ecosystem.
