We consider a modified Holling-type II predator-prey model, based on the premise that the search rate of predators is dependent on the prey density, rather than constant. A complete analysis of the global behavior of the model is presented, and shows that the model exhibits a dichotomy similar to the classical Holling-type II model: either the coexistence steady state is globally stable; or it is unstable, and then a unique, globally stable limit cycle exists. We discuss the similarities, but also important differences between our model and the Holling-type II model. The main differences are that: 1. The paradox of enrichment which always occurs in the Holling-type II model, does not always occur here, and 2. Even when the paradox of enrichment occurs, predators can adapt by lowering their search rate, and effectively stabilize the system. |
