Abstract
We simulated animal conflicts on different networks, where five strategies that the animals may take are considered. The result of the evolution of the five strategies on networks shows that whether one strategy dominates or two strategies coexist on the network is determined by the structure of the network. But no matter what structure the network is, the total-war strategy is constrained and never becomes a final winning strategy when it contests with the other four limited-war strategies. This may be the reason that the animals choose the limited-war strategies to fight against other animals of the same species.
