Explain how then lynx population size changes when the hare population increases?
Because lynx are predators of hares, if the hare population size increases, so will the lynx population because now there is more food available.
Is a lynx a predator or prey?
A lynx can be both. They do hunt rabbits, hares,voles, mice, and other small animals. Wolves and cougars can hunt a lynx and eat them. They are normally not their prey of choice, but can hunt one down if hungry.
Why does the lynx population go up as the hare population goes up?
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

When the hare popluation increased what happend to the lynx poplution why?
With increased hares (easy prey, food) the lynx population would also increase. Should the hare numbers decrease, the lynx would find it difficult to catch their food and would decrease in numbers.
What senses would lynx and hares rely on to survive?
Lynxes need keen eyesight and hearing for hunting, and hares need good hearing and smell to know if they're being stalked - and good eyesight to see where they're running.
How can you save lions?
We can save the lynx if we take effort to do so. All we have to do is to stop cutting down forests (the lynx habitat). If the snowshoe-hare becomes extinct, the lynx will probably do to. The lynx is a consumer which means it depends on other organisms for survival. In some places people are starting to breed snowshoe-hares and releasing them into the habitat in which the lynx lives, then the lynx can hunt for the snowshoe-hares without any direct influence of humans.yes all we got to do is stop destroying there home we all so have to find a way to save the rabbits that feed the lynx ( i mean like not feeding it as in feeding it like a you wold feed a baby) we also got to stop putting out poisen and thinking that there Bunny's and shooting them Ellie age 13surrey b.c
