Abstract
In this paper, we aim to study the interactions between the territorial animals like foxes and the rabbits. The territories for the foxes are considered to be the simple cells. The interactions between predator and its prey are represented by the chemical reactions which obey the mass action law. In this sense, we apply the mass action law for predator prey models and the quasi chemical approach is applied for the interactions between the predator and its prey to develop the modeled equations for different possible mechanisms of the predator prey interactions.

Keywords predator-prey interactions;reaction diffusion systems;modeling;fox;rabbit.
