Answer:
Should be C
Step-by-step explanation:
D is wrong because standing out should mean they are spotted more easily, which means they get hunted down more often/ prey spot them easier
B is kind of weird because larger population = more competition, and I remember owls work alone
A is suspicious because they are both tawny owls and I don't understand how less food they need to be significant
C sounds plausible because the gray feather can be a "stronger" gene or something
