What happened to the numbers of lynx as the hare population increased?

As the hare population increased, the number of lynx would also increase due to the higher availability of prey. This increase in lynx population would eventually lead to a decrease in the hare population as the lynx preyed on them, creating a cyclical pattern of predator-prey dynamics.


What factors could have caused a decrease in the hare population?

The hare's population would decrease if the number of predators that eat the hare increased. Take the Lynx for example. In 1865, The population of hares in the forest was almost over 150. But 1 week later, the population dropped by 50 due to more lynxes in the forest. Another reason might be because of migration. Migration might have happened because the hares were simply frightened.
