Answer:

Mongoose are opportunistic feeders that will eat birds, small mammals, reptiles, insects, fruits, and plants.

Step-by-step explanation:

so, if they are removed, there would be a population crisis. there would be too many snakes to control because the mongoose are one of the animals groups that eat snakes. the snake population increases. less mongoose= more snakes
