Question: Consider the population model given by ( dP ) / ( dt ) = 2 P - ( P ^ ( 2 ) ) /

Consider the population model given by (dP)/(dt)=2P-(P^(2))/(50) for a species of deer in a forest. It is decided that hunting will be allowed, but it is unclear how many hunting licenses should be issued. The average licensed hunter will kill 3 deer per year. (a) What is the largest number of licenses that can be issued for the deer population to survive? (b) What will happen to the deer population if this many licenses are issued? (c) Draw a bifurcation diagram for the parameter which represents the number of issued hunting licenses.
