This paper concerns with a stochastic system modeling the population dynamical behavior of one prey and two predators. In this paper, we adopt a special method to simulate the effect of the environmental interference to the system instead of using the linear functions of white noise, i.e., the growth rate of the prey and the death rates of the two predators are all governed by Ornstein–Uhlenbeck processes, which is more practical and interesting. The dynamical behavior among the three species in the model is discussed in detail. The existence and uniqueness, moment boundedness and long time asymptotic behavior of the unique global solution are investigated. Through rigorous proof and theoretical derivation, some sharp sufficient conditions for the persistence and extinction of the three species have been established. Furthermore, we obtain that when one or two predators die out, the remaining species can be stable in time average under same conditions. Moreover, by constructing some suitable Lyapunov functions, the sufficient conditions for the existence of the stationary distribution are explicitly determined. Under the same parametric restrictions, it is worth noting that we obtain the six-dimensional probability density function of the stochastic one-prey two-predator model around the quasi-equilibrium E∗, which can reflect most statistical properties. Finally, several numerical simulations are carried out to illustrate the theoretical results.
