Abstract

In this chapter we set up the modeling framework for a study of cannibalism by means of low-dimensional structured population models that distinguish only between cannibals and victims. Our specific interest is on adult cannibalism of juveniles. In Sect. 11.2 we use matrix modeling methodology [5, 7, 8] to develop and analyze a general discrete-time juvenile-adult matrix model.
