Based on the information you have been provided and the questions you have thought about, brainstorm a possible set of behavior rules for the wolves and moose and record them using the questions below.  Don't worry about trying to come up with the 'right answer'.  There are many possible answers which are valid, so just try to come up with a plausible, reasonable set of rules.

Discuss your rules with your classmates.  Have some students behave as wolves and others behave as moose according to the rules established by the class, and think about what observations you can make about the ecosystem.

The model that we will end up using gives the same simple instructions to each type of organism, in this case moose, wolf, and plant.

What simple rules could you give to each of these types that would lead to a natural ecosystem? Think of simple commands like move, direction etc,,

Remember all organisms of the same type will follow the same rules.
