Answer:

a long drought caused water to become scarce.

Explanation:

A limiting factor is a resource that limits the growth of a population. The limiting factor for the population described in the question is water availability. This means that the carrying capacity in the ecosystem for this population is determined by how much water is available, no matter how much food, space, or shelter the population has access to. Since the population has numerous food sources, the elimination of one food source would not likely cause the species to become extinct. A long drought that caused water to become scarce, however, might lead to species extinction.
