Prey predator relationship has been widely studied in ecology. An important general relation between prey and predator population was given by LOTKA-VOLERRA EQN. Which is a first-order non linear differential eqn given as: 1.dx/dt=x(A-By) and 2. dy/dt=-y(C-Dx) Where x the prey population increses proportionaly to population at any point of time and decreases proportionaly to its population multiplied by predators. And y the predator population decreses proportionaly to its population and
