Predator Prey VERA

This model depicts stable predator and prey cycling. First the prey population increase, this provides more resources for the predators to increase their population. The increased predator population then drives the prey population down, but the predators base their growth off the increased prey population size. This causes the predator population to overshoot and not have enough resources to support themselves, so their population decreases as result. This causes the prey population to increase and the cycle starts over again.
