# Export to CDF fails

The code below generates the error when I attempt to export to CDF Preview:

Coordinate {xde[4.69588928222656], yde[4.69588928222656]} should be a pair of numbers, or a Scaled or Offset form.

Here is my code:

system = {x'[t] == 2 x[t] - 0.08 x[t] y[t], x[0] == 400,
y'[t] == -y[t] + 0.01 x[t] y[t], y[0] == 25};

sol = NDSolve[system, {x[t], y[t]}, {t, 6}];

{xde[t_], yde[t_]} = {x[t], y[t]} /. Flatten[sol];

Animate[Show[
ParametricPlot[{xde[t], yde[t]}, {t, 0, 5.4},
AxesLabel -> {"Prey", "Predator"}, AspectRatio -> 1,
PlotRange -> {{0, 400}, {0, 80}}],
Graphics[{Red, PointSize[Large], Point[{xde[t], yde[t]}]}]], {t, 0,
5.4, AppearanceElements -> "PlayPauseButton"}, AnimationRate -> 0.5]


How can this be fixed? Thx.

You are just missing the SaveDefinitions -> True option in the Animate command.
