Abstract
In this chapter we consider a model describing the dynamics of predator-prey populations living in two patches. The two patches follow the Lotka-Volterra type and are coupled through prey migration. Our purpose is to study the effect of migration rate on the behavior of the coupled systems. We prove the positivity of solutions and find the upper and lower bounds with respect to the migration rate of prey. Also, we show the stability /instability of the possible steady states and we establish the global stability of the positive steady state by giving a candidate lyapunov function. Some numerical simulations are provided to graphically demonstrate the population dynamics of the system.
