Two population-level controls are combined with two within-host-level controls. We prove the existence and uniqueness of an optimal control quadruple. Comparing the two population-level controls, we find that reducing the HIV risk of opioid users has a stronger impact on the population who is both HIV-infected and opioid-dependent than treating the opioid disorder. The within-host-level antiviral treatment has an effect not only on the co-affected population but also on the HIV-only infected population.

Furthermore, we observe the occurrences of a series of bifurcations that depend on the cooperation rate and the hunting time. Second, we introduce a maturation delay for predator growth and analyse its impact on the system's dynamics. We find that as the delay becomes larger, predator species become more likely to go extinct, as the long maturation delay hinders the growth of the predator population.
