Deer are related to other herd animals pass between a them .also drought can curtail population as food becomes scarce and deer are weakened to the point they succumb to predators or illness
Extinct. Wolves are predators of deer. If the wolf population increases the deer population will become extinct. Log in for more information.
Cause: An increase in the population of deer in a forest leads to more food availability for wolves, which in turn leads to an increase in the population of wolves. Effect: The increase in the population of both deer and wolves can disrupt the balance of the ecosystem. More deer can lead to overgrazing and habitat destruction, while more wolves can lead to a decline in other prey species and potential conflicts with humans.
If the deer population increased fivefold, it could lead to overgrazing of vegetation, which could disrupt the ecosystem by decreasing plant diversity and altering habitats. This could also result in more frequent conflicts with humans, such as vehicle collisions and damage to crops. Additionally, an increase in deer population could potentially lead to an increase in disease transmission within the deer population.
There was increased competition for food.
It's a double-edged sword, really. To me, it's best to save deer when the population is quite small, smaller than it should be. But when the deer population has increased to more than what it should be (also called overpopulation), then deer should be hunted to decrease the numbers.
herbivores population will get increased in large number that you cant imagine they will be every where in our house also so save tigers
a disease that kills a large portion of wolf population affects the mice population because if a lot of the wolf died from the disease, they wouldnt eat deer so then there are more deer. if there are more deer, they need to eat more mice. so mice population would go down a lot.
The deer population has grown tremendously.
Red Deer, AB, Canada had a 2011 population of 90,564 residents.
The deer would not have enough food and start to starve to death which would cause the population to decrease locally. They may migrate toward other areas not as impacted by the drought, or spread out more.
There are likely a number of reasons the deer population has increased in Ohio. Deer tend to adjust to their habitat changes and will willingly eat homeowners' landscaping. Farmland has been abandoned and give the deer more area to feed and inhabit. Natural predators have been reduced. When once there were too few deer, now there are almost too many. To hunters, an over-population isn't too much of a problem unless it affects the health of the herd. To homeowners and drivers, deer are a nuisance and a hazard. The key is finding a happy medium.
In 1920, the deer population on St. Paul Island was estimated to be around 400-500 individuals.
