∙ 12y agoHawks prey on small mammals, primarily herbivores such as rabbits. If the population of hawks were to increase, then the population of herbivorous animals would decrease, allowing for the amount of vegetation to increase.

Every other animal's population in that food chain will decrease.

∙ 14y agoThe cause is (increase in hawk population) and the effect is (finding where the hawks population is).For example:up in a tree,nests,or deep in the forest.

The more hawks there are the less small animals there are, i.e. fish and mice, because hawks eat them.

Like all of the other links in the ecosystem they have a very important job eating insects and rodents to keep population down and are prey for other animals like hawks.
What would happen to a food chain if there was an increase in the hawk population?
Hawk prey would decrease, and hawk predators would increase, making hawks decrease again. So to put it in context... Hawks eat mice, right? So the mouse population would increase, meaning more food for other animals that eat mice, like owls. So the owl population would increase, making mice decrease. Then animals that might eat hawks (I don't know if anything does) would increase, and eat all of the hawks then everything would eventually even out again.To answer your question, lots of things will happen, but it will all even out again.
