In this paper, we study a discrete-time predator–prey model with Holling type-III functional response and harvesting in both species. A detailed bifurcation analysis, depending on some parameter, reveals a rich bifurcation structure, including transcritical bifurcation, flip bifurcation and Neimark–Sacker bifurcation. However, some sufficient conditions to guarantee the global asymptotic stability of the trivial fixed point and unique positive fixed points are also given. The existence of chaos in the sense of Li–Yorke has been established for the discrete system. The extensive numerical simulations are given to support the analytical findings. The system exhibits flip bifurcation and Neimark–Sacker bifurcation followed by wide range of dense chaos. Further, the chaos occurred in the system can be controlled by choosing suitable value of prey harvesting.
