What limiting factors affect the population of the dusky fiel mice
One of the Arctic Foxes' main sources of food is the Lemming. When there are abundant lemmings the Fox has food to raise large litters and the population of Foxes increases. Similarly the numbers of Foxes that can be fed decreases when the lemming population declines because there is less food for the Foxes. Basically the population of any animal is controlled by its food supply.
Arctic foxes are soooo cute!
