How the Volterra Predator‑Prey Model Explains Shark Surges During War

During World War I, shark catches rose sharply, prompting biologist D. Ancona to enlist mathematician Volterra, whose differential‑equation predator‑prey model—later extended with a logistic term—explains the disproportionate increase of sharks by accounting for fishing pressure and natural population dynamics.
