This paper explores a stochastic Gause predator-prey model with bounded or sub-linear functional response. The model, described by a system of stochastic differential equations, captures the influence of stochastic fluctuations on predator-prey dynamics, with particular focus on the stability, extinction, and persistence of populations. We provide sufficient conditions for the existence and boundedness of solutions, analyze noise-induced extinction events, and investigate the existence of unique stationary distributions for the case of Holing Type I functional response. Our analysis highlights the critical role of noise in determining long-term ecological outcomes, demonstrating that even in cases where deterministic models predict stable coexistence, stochastic noise can drive populations to extinction or alter the system's dynamics significantly. |
