The answer is a carrying capacity.

The carrying capacity is the maximum size of some population, for example, wolves population, that can survive in the given environment, in this case, the forest. It represents the number of animals that can live, reproduce, survive in the given area regarding the indefinite sustainability of this area in terms of resources (food, water, habitat, etc.)
