In a woodland community in Northern Michigan, wolves are struggling to survive in their small, fragmented forest. The forest is surrounded by land used for farming and animal grazing. People living on this land view the wolves as a threat to their livestock so much that they want to either relocate the wolves or have them exterminated. Wolves are top predators in the woodland community and hunt large mammals such as white-tailed deer.
Analyze how the woodland community would most likely respond to the removal of wolves from their community.

The deer population would remain the same.
The deer population would decrease.
The deer population would leave the woodland community.
