If a disease significantly reduces the owl population, which are natural predators of shrews, the shrew population is likely to increase. With fewer owls to control their numbers, shrews can thrive, leading to a potential overpopulation. This surge could result in increased competition for food and habitat among shrews, and possibly lead to ecological imbalances in their environment. Over time, other factors such as food availability and disease among shrews may eventually regulate their population.
