Abstract
A stochastic Lotka.Volterra model is formulated by using the semimartingale approach. The large deviation principle is established, and is used to obtain a bound for the asymptotics of the time to extinction of prey population. The bound is given in terms of past-dependent ODE.s closely related to the dynamics of the deterministic Lotka .Volterra model.
