In　this　paper,　we　consider　a　ratio-dependent　predator-prey　system　incorporating　a　prey　refuge.　The　qualitative　behavior　of　the　system　at　the　origin　in　the　interior　of　the　first　quadrant　is　studied.　Using　the　prey　refuge　m　as　control,　the　global　qualitative　analysis　of　the　system　and　conditions　of　the　existence　and　the　non-existence　of　limit　cycles　for　the　system　is　obtained.　©　2017　Journal　of　Nonlinear　Functional　Analysis.
