Why do predator populations follow the cycles of prey populations?
A. The predators carefully note how much prey remains and only have as many offspring as they can feed.
B. The predators spend so much time around their prey they begin to have similar birthing rates.
C. Because, as the amount of prey declines there is not enough food for all of the predators, and their
population declines as well.
OD. It is unknown why predator populations follow the cycles of prey, but many scientists are studying it.
