Competition Between Populations
Purpose
How do populations affect each other in ecosystems?
Model Rules
In this model, a population of bugs are able to wander the world, eating grass as they go. As the bugs eat grass, they gain energy, and as they move they lose energy. If they run out of energy, the bugs will die, and if they gain enough energy, they will reproduce.
In this scenario, you will investigate how the bug population behaves with no outside influences.
Set the region % grassland to 100 in and the initial-birds to zero in both ecosystems before you begin.
