In this paper, we derive a simple model for the description of an ecological system including several subgroups with distinct ages, in order to analyze the influence of various phenomena on temporal evolution of the considered species. Our aim is to address the question of resilience of the global system, defined as its ability to stabilize itself to equilibrium, when being perturbed by exterior fluctuations. It is shown that a under a critical condition involving growth rate and mortality rate of each subgroup, extinction of all species may occur.
