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
