Question

In this ecosystem, hunting for deer has become a common practice among many residents of nearby communities. If hunting continues and drastically reduces the deer population, how might this impact the hawk population? Hawks do not rely on deer for food, so the hawk population would be unaffected. Having less deer would increase the mountain lion dependency on rabbits, which would lead to fewer rabbits available for the hawks.
