Because lynx are predators of hares, if the hare population size increases, so will the lynx population because now there is more food available.
The lynxes eat rabbits, so their effect is to reduce the rabbit population.
The Lynx population got larger because there were enough prey for all the predators.
Hares are a food source for lynxes. Lynxes are a predator of hares. Hares rely on plants for food and lynxes rely on hares (inter alia) for food. If the hare population increases due, perhaps, to lots of good plant food, then the lynxes (and maybe the foxes) have more food and can support more babies which survive to maturaty. Too many lynxes and too few hares means not enough food for the lynxes. Baby lynxes starve and the balance is adjusted. JCF
The 'hare' population, like any native animal or even botanical species, will fluctuate depending on a wide variety of factors. Environmental conditions are a primary factor, with harsh weather and subsequent negative effects upon the hare's primary foraging areas and lairs a significant cause of decreases in population numbers. The amount of predation is another factor, as is the activity of human beings, whether via hunting or construction or other interference with the natural activities and habitat of the hare.
The hare's population would decrease if the number of predators that eat the hare increased. Take the Lynx for example. In 1865, The population of hares in the forest was almost over 150. But 1 week later, the population dropped by 50 due to more lynxes in the forest. Another reason might be because of migration. Migration might have happened because the hares were simply frightened. Hoped this helped :D
When the snowshoe rabbits become scarce, the lynx population is low as well. This is because the Snowshoe rabbit is the main prey of the Canada lynx. This explains that some lynx starve to death when they cannot eat the Snowshoe hare. Also, when female lynx are in a bad condition because they are starved, some cannot breed. In conclusion, whenever the Snowshoe rabbit's population decreased, the Lynx population was low also.

How to Explain Pictures to a Dead Hare was created in 1965.
The mountain hare has three names 1. mountain hare 2. blue hare 3.white hare it has these name because during the summer, it has a blue-grey coat during the winter it changes it coat to white!! that's so cool right? and the mountain hare because it is found on usually mountains!!

Improve. Some possible events that could affectthe populations are hunting,natural disasters or humans ... How does the hare population affect the lynxpopulation? ... I think that what affects it the most is the Deat Rate, and LifeExpectancy.
If the population of hare decreases, it's predators will have less food(hare) to feed on and this results in the depletion of the hare's predators. Therefore, the whole food chain would be affected as there will be less food for the organisms.
