well becaus eof competition, survival of the fittest comes into play. the fittest animals get the food/shelter/mates ect, and so survive to breed and pass on their strong genes. also the weaker animals, or diseased animals, die off and so lessen the competition, which must be kept at a healthy level.

What is anything that can limit the size of a population including living and non living features of an ecosystem such as predators or drought?

Factors that can limit the size of a population are known as limiting factors. These include biotic elements like predators, competition for resources, and disease, as well as abiotic elements such as drought, temperature extremes, and availability of water and nutrients. Both sets of factors interact to regulate population growth and maintain ecological balance. Ultimately, they can determine the carrying capacity of an environment for a particular species.


Who or what contributes to the control of wildlife population creating a healthy balance for the habitat?

The control of wildlife populations is influenced by a combination of natural predators, food availability, disease, and environmental factors. Predators help regulate the populations of prey species, while competition for resources ensures that no single species dominates the habitat. Additionally, human management practices, such as conservation efforts and regulated hunting, can also play a vital role in maintaining a balanced ecosystem. Together, these factors contribute to a healthy and sustainable wildlife population within their habitats.
