15 points: Green beetles are a favorite of the blackbird. They live on the green foilage in a local temperate forest. Unfortunately, drought has caused most of the trees to fie out and the leaves to turn brown. How can this environment change impact the population of the green beetle.

This is a classic of natural selection. The green beetle population will die out because they have no where to hide while darker beetles that once suffered will thrive.

there are two things. they dont have enough food since the food is dead. They are easier to see since its hard to camouflage with the leave. Im guessing the crows would fly since im assuming they live on trees but if they stayed they would eat the nettles and the population will ultimately decrease to huge numbers and the drought it self can kill them too.
