What might happen to a population of rabbits in a forest if a new predator moved to the forest?

the predator of the rabbits would probably eat some of the rabbits, which lowers the population of rabbits in said forest. then, since there are fewer rabbits, there is less chance of a lot of reproduction, so there are overall just fewer rabbits.
