We prove that the Volterra‐Gause system of predator‐prey type exhibits 2 kinds of zero‐Hopf bifurcations for convenient values of their parameters. In the first, 1 periodic solution bifurcates from a zero‐Hopf equilibrium, and in the second, 4 periodic solutions bifurcate from another zero‐Hopf equilibrium. This study is done using the averaging theory of second order.
