Hi,
  The University of Colorado at Boulder has a wonderful site with
simulations for multiple science fields.  They are at different levels,
from school to university, but that is explained for each simulation.  You
can also download accompanying activity handouts for most of them, or
upload your own for others to use as models.

One of their simulations, which I have used on introductory biology courses
for majors deals with rabbits, dominant/recessive traits, and predaros vs.
food as selective forces.  The website is here: http://phet.colorado.edu/
and the simulation is here:
http://phet.colorado.edu/en/simulation/natural-selection


Cheers,

Edwin
