The Animal Summoning spells do address the issue.

So, if the 1st caster is the first to summon the animal in question, then I take the spell's description to mean that the 2nd caster is unsuccessful as no animals of that type were available. The spell goes on to state:

I take this to mean that there would be no competition... The animal is simply unavailable until the 1st caster no longer needs that animal.
That being said, if both casters were to somehow begin casting, as well as finishing the spell at exactly the same moment, then I would have both casters make a spellcraft check and the caster that rolled the lowest "wins" the "spell battle".
