Summary:This paper presents a predator-prey model that is the key element of ecological systems. We present the results of coevolving artificial creatures of two species (predator and prey) in a 3D physically simulated environment. The evolutionary process uses the physical properties of virtual creatures and two opposite fitness functions to drive the process to the behaviors we are looking for. Our best-evolved creatures are able to reach their adversary during the simulation time.
