\noindent{\bold Essential Question:}

How do antlion spatial patterns, such as pit depth, width, and nearest neighbor, as well as  behaviors, such as cannibalism and eating habits vary with respect to spatial constraints and temporal change?

\medbreak
\noindent{\bold Hypothesis:} 

As the space available to antlion groups decreases, each claims less territory, and the populations tend towards more extreme behaviors, such as cannibalism and reclusivity, to limit competition for ants as an emergent feature of individual interactions.
