I tried creating a small eco system. The small dots are called food. The triangles are the second lowest on the food chain behind the food. The turquiose circles are in the middle of the food chain and only the large green circles can eat them. None of the same species will eat each other. The predators select the closest prey, symbolized by the white line, and accelerates in their direction, the larger predators moving slower. The prey will try to avoid the predators. The turquiose circles only move toward the closest prey, while the largest predators also apply a gravitational pull toward their prey, pulling in and moving toward their prey. The larger each object, the more gravitational force is applied.

Every time that a predator eats, his life is extended, however, if he does not eat enough, ahhhhh! He or she will explode and contribute back to the eco system, generating lil guys and food, based on their size.
