The paper deals with the age-dependent model which is a generalization of the classical Lotka-Volterra model. Age structure of both species, predators and preys is concerned. The model is based on the system of partial differential and integro-differential equations. We study the existence and uniqueness of the solution for the considered population problem. The stability problem for trivial stationary solution of the model is also proved.

Keywords: Population model, Lotka-Volterra model, age-dependent predator-prey model, stability.
