create homes for birds and squirrels

Ecology examines how everything is connected.

What would happen to a population of rabbits if their natural predators were removed from their habitat?

The population of rabbits would increase at first. But then the population may become so great that there isn’t enough food for all of them and many will starve to death.

The population of rabbits would decrease at first. But then the population may become so low that there will be enough food for all of them and many will thrive.
