This is a model of a grazing herd of hungry elephants. In this model, there are two species of grass (blue and red). The elephants prefer blue glass but do not mind red grass. Because the elephants want to eat as much bue grass as possible, they walk toward the blue grass that is closest to them within their sensing radius (while eating red grass if they happen across it on the way). Toward the end of the simulation, you can observe that there is plenty of leftover red grass. | |||
