Abstract
The seasonal temperature variations strongly affect anthrax disease in the herbivores population in wildlife. This article presents a grass-herbivores model incorporating anthrax disease in herbivores taking grass growth rate, grass death rate, and anthrax transmission rate among herbivores temperature-dependent parameters. The positivity, boundedness, and existence of solutions are derived. For the autonomous model, the stability of disease-free equilibrium is established for \(R_C<1\). Further, the stability of the coexistence state has been proven under conditions. The analysis of the non-autonomous model reveals the local stability of the periodic disease-free state for periodic basic reproduction number \(R_C(t)<1\) with the help of the monodromy matrix. Again, the global stability of periodic infection-free state has been shown \(R_C(t)<1\) with the help of comparison theory and the theory of periodic semi-flow. The existence and global attractivity of the periodic coexistence state have been shown at \(R_C(t)>1\) via the Poincare map and comparison theory. The significance of the parameters related to disease transmission and prevalence is described using sensitivity analysis. Numerical simulation proved that we could control anthrax disease by decreasing the anthrax transmission rate among predators, healthy herbivores’ death rate, and increasing the healthy grass predation rate. Also, an increase in temperature increases the periodic basic reproduction number, revealing that a temperature rise increases the chances of anthrax infection in herbivores.
