The outcomes of competition between two species can be predicted using equations, and one of the most well known is the Lotka-Volterra model (Volterra 1926, Lotka 1932).

“The Great Goat Graze-Off” is an evolution of the annual Running of the Goats at Riverside Park, which sees the hairy little ...

For many species, intraspecific competition has strong effects on how population size varies over time. At high density, growth is reduced, fecundity is suppressed, and survival is affected.

Competition between species played a major role in the rise and fall of hominins -- and produced a 'bizarre' evolutionary pattern for the Homo lineage -- according to a new study that revises the ...

This competition drove many species to extinction. “If one species colonises an area where [there’s] a better competitor, it can’t survive,” says Mitchell.

Larval competition between the Yellow Fever Mosquito and Asian Tiger Mosquito impacts adult survival may influence their ability to transmit dangerous diseases. "Older mosquitoes are potentially ...

A group of famous goats are back for the summer in Manhattan's Riverside Park, and this time they're hungrier than ever for some tasty greenery.On Saturday, the Riverside Park herd faced off in New ...

New findings, published in Communications Biology, reveal that the size of prey animals plays a surprisingly pivotal role in competition patterns among predators. The study is based on over two ...

If this parameter is greater than zero, the species will die out and if it is less than zero, the species will survive. Although there are many reasons for this, one important factor is competition ...
