  We consider the recently addressed problem of a passive particle (a
predator), being the center of a ``sphere of interception'' of radius $R$ and
able to absorb other passive particles (the preys) entering into the sphere.
Assuming that all the particles are advected by a turbulent flow and that, in
particular, the Richardson equation properly describes the relative dispersion,
we calculate an analytical expression for the flux into the sphere as a
function of time, assuming an initial constant density of preys outside the
sphere. In the same framework, we show that the distribution of times of first
passage into the sphere has a $t^{-5/2}$ power law tail, seen in contrast to
the $t^{-3/2}$ appearing in standard 3D diffusion. We also discuss the
correction due to the integral length scale on the results in the stationary
case.
