Scenerio: What if the apex predator went extinct in the Amazon Rainforest.
If the apex predators went extinct, the jaguar and python, the sceondary consumers would become very overpopulated. This would happen because there wouldn't be anything hunting it. Since the populations of the secondary consumers would be higher, they would need to consume more food. As a result, the primary consumer populations would decrease. Which could result in competetion or eventually extinction. To prevent this, we could support funds that go towards the support of endangered species or create awareness of the endangered species.
