In a protected grassland preserve, there are herds of antelope and zebra and a pride of fifteen lionesses with cubs. A conservation program for lions plans to move the pride to a national park fifty miles north. What effect would this move have on the stability of this grassland preserve

This would cause the overpopulation in the grassland preserve. There would be too many antelopes and zebras that they would have to compete for survival. The food resources would run out for both species and cause a competition among every animal.
